Twelve injured, 42 displaced by fire at Vancouver seniors apartment

Because of outdated building requirements, sprinklers were only installed on the building's first floor.



A fire in a Vancouver seniors apartment building injured 12 people and displaced 42 residents. The fire, which started on the seventh floor, damaged 15 units. While fire alarms worked, the building lacked sprinklers on upper floors. The cause of the fire is under investigation, and displaced residents are being accommodated in hotels.
