Crews on scene of fire south of Strathroy

OPP are asking the public to avoid an area south of Strathroy due to a structure fire. Glendon Drive is closed between Wellington Avenue and Dugald Street.

Roads have reopened after a structure fire south of Strathroy Monday morning.

Crews were called to a property in Appin around 3 a.m. after the homeowner heard a loud bang.

The contents of a large shed, including a race car and construction tools, were destroyed.

Firefighters were able to stop the flames from spreading to the nearby home and it took about an hour to get the blaze under control.

Local fire officials on scene told CTV News the Ontario Fire Marshal will not be attending.

There is no word yet on a cause of the fire or a damage estimate.
