Ottawa Paramedics say a man in his 20s is in serious condition in hospital with smoke inhalation after a fire in Carp.
Ottawa Fire Services (OFS) says several 911 calls came in at around 8:20 a.m. Monday from Diamondview Road, reporting that a building was on fire.
Firefighters arrived at 8:30 to find a storage building engulfed in flames and, within two minutes, the roof of the building collapsed.
