Apartment fire extinguished by sprinkler system (Iqaluit, NU)

An apartment fire in Iqaluit caused the evacuation of a large building in the city Friday.  Fire crews responded to an alarm at the blue Inuksugait building around mid-morning. By the time they got there, the sprinkler system had extinguished any flames.  “We would have been looking at going in there and fighting an active fire in what essentially for us is a highrise building. So we didn't have to get into that because the sprinkler system did a grand job."
