Fire ravages apartment block in Montreal's Hochelaga district

A three-storey residential/commercial block in Montreal’s Hochelaga-Maisonneuve district was heavily damaged by fire early Tuesday.
There were no injuries reported but at least two apartment units were so seriously damaged as to be uninhabitable, Montreal fire department officials said.
The fire broke out at about 3:50 a.m. in the buillding, located on Ste-Catherine St. E. near Joliette St., and the cause has yet to be determined.
The blaze required two alerts — about 60 firefighters
