Three fire engines, one ladder truck and a rescue unit were deployed to tackle the blaze, with more called in just minutes later as the flames spread to vehicles in the driveway and the neighbouring home.

The fire department says its crew shut down utilities at the scene to prevent an explosion while other members doused the flames.

The fire was under control by about 8:19 a.m., the fire department says. Four occupants of the home were able to escape safely.

A fire investigator is expected to report on the cause and estimated damages once the scene is cleared.
