Dozens of 911 calls around 4:20 a.m. reported “a loud bang” in the 300 block of Douglas Glen Close S.E., the fire department said in a statement.

One caller said they heard “a loud sound, glass shattering and then flames visible from the second floor of the single-family home.”

When fire crews arrived they found a home fully engulfed in flames with fire spreading to neighbouring residences.

The fire department called a second alarm for additional resources to fight the fire, aggressively attacking the source home fire while fighting the spreading flames from both inside and outside the neighbouring homes.

Denise Sullivan’s home backs onto the fire. She said she woke to “a big, huge bang like an explosion” on Sunday morning.
