A structure fire Monday morning in Dufferin County was determined to be non-suspicious, police say.

Around 8 a.m., police closed County Road 109 between County Road 5 and Amaranth–East Luther Townline, as well as County Road 25 between Watson Road and County Road 109.

Residents and early-morning commuters were asked to avoid the area and use alternate routes while emergency personnel worked to contain the blaze.

Photos released by police showed heavy smoke coming from a building with multiple fire trucks surrounding the closed intersection.

It remains unclear how the fire started or how much damage has been caused. All roads have since reopened.
