FIRE QUICKLY PUT OUT AT BROCK DORM

Firefighters pounced Monday evening on a washroom blaze at a Brock University dormitory.
Niagara Regional Police said firefighters had to extinguish a small blaze at the Lowenberger Residence on campus. They said someone had lit papers in a bathroom in the building.
St. Catharines Deputy Fire Chief Dave Wood said the small washroom fire had mostly burned down by the time crews arrived but was put out in fairly short order. He said there was some damage to the tub and bathroom around the blaze.
"All the students were removed from the fourth floor wing safely," he said. He said they're being put up in other rooms by Brock.
Woode said the west wing of the fourth floor is being closed off for investigation.
The call initially came in just after 9 p.m.
