A man is in life-threatening condition and two others have minor injuries after a fire in Scarborough Friday evening, Toronto Paramedics say.

Emergency crews were called to a fire on Alexmuir Boulevard, near Midland Avenue and Finch Avenue East, just after 6 p.m.

A Toronto Fire Services spokesperson said flames were seen coming from the back of the house.

Firefighters removed a man from the home and CPR was successfully administered before he was rushed to a hospital by paramedics.

The two-alarm blaze was knocked down around 7:30 p.m. and investigators have been notified.
