Man, 26, charged with arson after Gatineau apartment fire

A young man was due to appear in a Gatineau court Tuesday on charges of arson relating to an apartment fire that broke out late Monday evening.
Residents of a four-storey Gatineau apartment building were driven into the frigid night by a fire just before midnight.
There were 32 residents who evacuated the 16 apartments at 16 rue Tassé, in the Mont-Bleu area. The fire was under control about half an hour later.
The fire was confined to one apartment. Damage is estimated at $85,000.
