Damages are estimated between $50,000 and $100,000 after an apartment fire on the 400 block of Lakeshore Drive today (Saturday).

City fire crews were dispatched around noon and found the fire was vented out one of the bedroom windows, with the room fully involved and extending to the living area of the apartment when they arrived on scene.

Captain Stuart Mossington says crews knocked down the fire and contained it pretty quickly.

He says all the tenants got out and no one was hurt.

The structure has five apartment units.

Mossington says tenants from four apartments will be displaced for about a week, while the tenants from the unit that had the fire will likely be displaced for about a month.

The cause is under investigation.
