A fire at an Etobicoke apartment building sent one person to hospital with serious, non-life-threatening injuries Friday afternoon.
Emergency crews were dispatched shortly after 3:30 p.m. to a building on Michael Power Place, near Bloor Street West and Dundas Street West, after a blaze broke out on a fifth-floor balcony.
Three people inside the apartment escaped without assistance while firefighters worked to bring the two-alarm fire under control. The flames also caused damage to the apartment directly above the unit where the fire started.
Paramedics said one additional person sustained minor injuries and refused hospital transport, while another was treated for minor smoke inhalation.
Investigators are working to determine what caused the fire and how it began.
