Ottawa Fire Services (OFS) spokesperson Nick DeFazio said they received multiple 911 calls just before 8 a.m. about heavy smoke and flames coming from the property on Manotick Main Street. Responding crews were able to see a column of smoke while still on their way there. Firefighters used a ladder to put out the fire from above, OFS said.
