On July 5, 2013, just before 5am, Swan River RCMP as well as local emergency services were dispatched to the scene of a residential fire on 3rd Avenue NW in Swan River.
Initial investigation indicates that the fire started in a garage and spread to the residence – a house trailer.
Police say that an 82-year-old male resident was rescued from the home by fire fighters and transported to hospital with undetermined injuries. There was no one else in the residence, and no other injuries reported.
The Manitoba Office of the Fire Commissioner will be attending to assist with the ongoing investigation.
