Four people have suffered burns after a fire caused by “misadventure,” according to Toronto Fire.
Crews were called to the scene at 22 Park Street just before 10 p.m.
A group of people were having a bonfire when patio furniture reportedly caught on fire. One person reportedly jumped in a nearby swimming pool after the fire broke out.
Two women in their 50s suffered severe burns and are being rushed to a trauma via two emergency runs. Two other women suffered minor injuries.
By the time fire crews arrived, the blaze had been put out.
The Ontario Fire Marshall has been called into investigate and determine what caused the fire, but police say they don’t believe, at this point, it was criminal in nature.
