Fire contained at Superior Sanitation in Charlottetown

The Charlottetown Fire Department responded with three trucks to a fire call outside Superior Sanitation early Friday evening. 

Charlottetown fire Inspector Kent Mitchell said the call came in around 5:30 and when firefighters arrived they "found multiple vehicles fully engulfed in flames."

Firefighters immediately started dousing the flames using a nearby hydrant and had vehicles moved away from the blaze.

"We got occupants in the building to move vehicles beside the vehicles involved out of the way so they wouldn't become involved in the fire as well," Mitchell said.

Mitchell said 12 firefighters responded to the scene and had the situation under control by around 6:30

Mitchell said no one was in immediate danger and that an investigation will begin soon.

He did not confirm the number of trucks lost in this fire.

Charlottetown Police also responded to the call.
