Students and staff got out of the building safely and Toronto Fire said the three-alarm fire was contained by around 4 p.m. “Crews continue to fight a stubborn hidden fire in the stage and auditorium area,” Eckerman said. “The fire has spread in the walls from the first and second floor adjacent to the stage area as well as burning in under the stage as well. It has since continued up into the roof area.”
Taverner said police are concerned the fire may be suspicious, but acknowledged that it is too soon to say. Speaking with CP24 at the scene, York Memorial C.I. Principal Donna Drummond said it was “a very sad day for all.”
