Fire at Prince of Wales Drive synagogue deemed accidental

A fire at a Prince of Wales Drive synagogue Sunday night caused an estimated $10,000 in damage and slightly injured a neighbour who came to help.
Ottawa fire crews were called to Temple Israel, south of Baseline Road, at 11:25 p.m. when a neighbour called 911.
A fire investigator was called to the scene and concluded it was accidental and likely caused by an electrical malfunction of a hydro vault.
The flames appear to have spread from the vault along a grassy area to a wooden enclosure outside
