Fortunately, no one was injured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOfficers are appealing to any witnesses who may have been in the area at the time who have not yet spoken to police to please come forward. Investigators are also seeking any video surveillance from the area or anyone that may have captured dashcam video on the roadways.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyone with information is asked to contact the York Regional Police #1 District Criminal Investigations Bureau at 1-866-876-5423 x7174, or anonymously through Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The investigation is ongoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>STOVE SUSPECTED IN GARAGE FIRE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A wood stove is suspected to be the cause of a detached garage fire on Metcalfe Street on New Year\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Central York Fire Services responded to a call on Metcalfe at 2.48 p.m., on January 1, encountering heavy smoke from the first and second floors of the building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c17 firefighters responded to the initial report of black smoke and flames coming from inside the home,\u201d said the CYFS. \u201cHoarding conditions hampered firefighting operations and resulted in defensive operations until the fire could be brought under control and the building safely entered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe cause and origin of the fire appear to have been a wood stove on the main floor of the garage.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There were no injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>By Brock Weir<br \/>Editor<br \/>Local Journalism Initiative
