A dangerous fire in Melfort could have been much worse if it wasn’t for the efforts of the Melfort Fire Department.

The fire at a storage unit on the 100 block of Burns Ave. W. started at around 8 p.m. on Monday.

The crews were able to contain the fire to the storage facility and prevent it from spreading to the adjacent apartment block or other nearby properties.

The facility was completely destroyed.
