Laura Street house burns again

Firefighters extinguished a blaze at a vacant house on Laura Street early Tuesday after it burned for the third time in less than two years.

Crews were sent to the two-storey house at 253 Laura St. at about 4:15 a.m. and declared the fire under control about 40 minutes later.

The house was damaged in previous fires early on June 15 and last year, on the afternoon of Feb. 22.
