One Transported After Canton Township Fire

CANTON TOWNSHIP, Pa. — An investigation is underway into a fire in Canton Township Sunday evening. Washington County 911 says crews were called to a commercial structure fire in the 1100 block of West Findlay Street just after 7:30 p.m. Canton Township Fire Chief Chuck LaBella says the fire started at a car repair business. The man who rents the building was outside at the time. Since the building is made of metal, damage was mainly to the interior insulation and some cars that were inside, LaBella says. Crews were on scene for about an hour and a half. The fire was brought under control quickly thanks to help from several other companies, LaBella says. The renter began experiencing a rapid heart rate and was taken to a hospital to be checked out. LaBella says the fire’s cause is currently unknown.
