There were no injuries and damage is estimated at $50,000 after this building on Highway 10, just south of King Street, went up in flames Saturday morning. Caledon Fire and Emergency Services reports the call come in just after 9 a.m. Ten fire vehicles from the Snelgrove, Cheltenham, Inglewood, Caledon village and Caledon East stations and about 50 firefighters responded to the call. When they arrived, they found a two-storey building fully involved with flame. Crews established a tanker water shuttle system and started a defensive fire attack due to the advanced conditions. The structure collapsed just after 9:30 and the fire was brought under control at abut 9:40. The building was determined to be used for storage of a number of vehicles. The structure and its contents were a total loss. The cause was still under investigation by the fire department.
