CALGARY — Upwards of two dozen people had to run for safety when a wind-whipped two-alarm fire on a blistering hot day severely damaged three Calgary homes. The flames were spreading from one home to a neighbouring house when firefighters arrived at the scene in the city’s northeast around 5:00 p.m. Monday. There were no injuries among a total of 21 people who had to flee. The evacuees were placed on transit buses to keep out of the heat. Calgary fire officials say three houses were left uninhabitable.
