At midnight on Sunday, April 30, 2023 Anahim Lake RCMP were called to a house fire on Dorsey Road.
Emergency personnel attended and immediately located the home owner outside of his residence. He and his dog escaped the fully engulfed structure. He had received injuries as a result of the fire and was taken to hospital. It is not believed the injuries are life threatening. There were no reported injuries to the dog.
As there is no fire protection services in Anahim Lake, the Ulkatcho band water truck attended, along with community members with an excavator and a fire break was made around the residence.
Dawson Road Maintenance attended and assisted with traffic control and monitored the power lines in the area. BC Wildfire Services and BC Hydro were notified. Around 6:00 am, the fire was reported to be extinguished.
The cause of the fire is believed to be accidental and there is no criminality suspected.
