One building was destroyed in a blaze at the site of the old Bloomfield school in Halifax, bringing 49 firefighters to the scene Sunday.
Fire crews were called to the property on Agricola Street around 1:35 a.m. Feb. 16 for a three-alarm fire. They found a blaze on the first floor and the basement, fighting through barricaded doors and windows.
Officials reported that the fire was brought under control around 5:45 a.m. One building at the site was destroyed, but the fire did not spread to other sections of the former school thanks to a coordinated and efficient response.
No injuries were reported.
Here are some photos submitted to the Halifax Professional Fire Fighters of the incident:
