Ottawa Fire Services (OFS) says a firefighter is in a non-critical condition after being injured Friday evening while fighting a vehicle fire near a garage in Orleans.
The firefighter sustained a cut to their hand and was treated by pramedics on scene, OFS's chief of special operations, Dan Kirvan, told CTV News Ottawa on Saturday.
Firefighters say they received a call shortly after 9 p.m. reporting a car was on fire near a garage located in the 300 block of Mountain Sorrel Way.
Responding crews say they declared a working fire when they saw black smoke from a distance.
When they arrived on scene, they immediately started putting the fire out until it was declared under control at 9:21 p.m.
Then, they "checked for extensions to the house."
