“The individuals have since been evacuated,” he said.
“The platoon is checking the building… the fire is now under control.”
Fire officials said the cause of the fire has not yet been determined.
Officers from the Greater Sudbury Police Service (GSPS) are also in the area of Elgin Street and Van Horne Street to manage traffic.
