Strathroy-Caradoc Fire Department stations #1 and #2 responded just before 4:30am to a working structure fire at the old Scoops variety store on the corner of English and Caradoc Streets in Strathroy.
On arrival, there was heavy smoke and flames visible, crews knocked down the main fire but were dealing with hot spots until just prior to 7am when the area was re-opened to traffic. The Fire Department also told myFM, there was a partial collapse of the building, and currently there is no official cause or damage estimate.
