Fire rips through Grande Prairie home for second time within a year
A Grande Prairie house under construction was destroyed by fire for the second time in less than a year.
Fire crews were called to the home just after 3 a.m. Saturday, Platoon Chief Ben Sargeant said.
The house was destroyed, but firefighters were able to stop the flames from spreading to nearby homes. No one was hurt.
The house was being rebuilt after a fire in August 2016.
Damage is estimated to be $200,000 to $300,000. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
