A vacant building on Church Avenue is “expected to be a total loss” after a fire early Tuesday.

Firefighters were sent to the commercial building on Church’s 300 block at 4:49 a.m. and used aerial ladder trucks to blast water onto the fire, which was declared under control just before 6 a.m.

Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service crews evacuated a neighbouring home as a precaution.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
