May 4, 2022 | 2:19 PM

Approximately 45 minutes north of Prince Albert, LT’s Food and Fuel on Highway 2 North at the turnoff to Waskesiu was engulfed in flames this afternoon.

Crews from the Lakeland and District Fire Department, the Waskesiu Fire Department, Buckland Fire Rescue, Montreal Lake Fire Department, OSS Water hauling and SPSA Weyakwin Fire Base responded to the blaze.

According to an update on the Lakeland and District Fire Department’s Facebook page, at 1:24 p.m. they responded to the fire to find the building at the rear of the main structure fully involved in flames.

They say the motel is a total loss but they were able to stop it from spreading to the main store and restaurant thanks to the work of the crews involved.

There were no injuries and the cause of the fire is under investigation. There will also be crews on scene into the evening working on hot spots.
