Vancouver firefighters say a man suffered life-threatening injuries in a fire that broke out early Monday morning on West Sixth Avenue.
Vancouver Fire and Rescue Services say they received a report of a fire in a residential building just before 5 a-m on May 29th and found a male with serious burns outside a burnt unit.
Firefighters say the blaze was caused by open flames burning combustible materials in the unit, and sprinklers were able to contain it, though the unit's smoke alarms weren't working.
The fire service says a 34-year-old man was taken to V-G-H with serious and life-threatening injuries.
