  • Detectives with Niagara Regional Police are working with the Ontario Fire Marshal’s Office as they investigate the cause of today’s massive downtown fire. Crews from all six of the city’s fire halls, as well as assistance from Thorold and Pelham fire stations, fought to keep the fire at the the former Welland House Hotel on Ontario Street under control for most of the day. The building will likely need to be demolished. (St. Catharines Standard)
