Everyone is safe after a vehicle fire spread to an apartment building earlier this morning in Dauphin.

Shortly before 1:00 a.m., the Dauphin Fire Department was on the scene of a vehicle fire on 9th Ave SW. While they were travelling to the fire, they were told by the caller that the fire had spread to an apartment building that the vehicle was parked adjacent to.

Crews were able to contain the fire to the vehicle and limited fire damage to the exterior of the apartments with only smoke entering the suites. All tenants were evacuated while crews got the smoke out from each suite and they were then allowed back in.

The fire is not suspicious.
