Busy North End street closed as firefighters battle early morning blaze

A section of a busy North End Street is closed Friday morning as the Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service battles a blaze in the area.

Just before 5 a.m., fire crews responded to a structure fire on Burrows Avenue.  

Firefighters remain on scene at this hour. As a result, Burrows Avenue is closed between Arlington Street and Sinclair Street. 

Motorists are encouraged to avoid the area and find an alternate route. 

More details to come.
