SUMMERSIDE, P.E.I. — A single-dwelling residence in Summerside was ablaze early this morning.
The Summerside Fire Department received a call at 3:45 a.m. about a fire at a house on Elm Street.
There was no one in the house at the time of the fire, and it is not known at this time how it started.
A representative from the fire department said he believed the fire caused “total loss” to the home and said it took firefighters about a half an hour to put it out.
