Ontario Provincial Police | Apr 19, 2023
The Lennox and Addington (L&A) County Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) responded to a fire on Hwy 7 just west of Kaladar to assist the Fire Department with traffic control.
Today at approximately 12:30 p.m. the L&A OPP responded with the Addington Highlands Fire Department and Stone Mills Fire Department to a structure fire that quickly spread to a grass fire due to the high winds. The grass fire spread approximately 200m east of the residence. The grass fire is currently under control and the Addington Highlands Fire Department and Stone Mills Fire Department are working on the structure fire. Currently Hwy 7 is down to one lane of traffic being directed by police, so expect some traffic delays in that area. L&A County officers remain on scene with the Addington Highlands Fire Department and Stone Mills Fire Department and are asking motorists to use caution and have patience as the fire department makes the scene safe. The roads will be fully re-opened once the Fire Department is satisfied that the "hot spots" are contained.
