A five unit apartment complex in St.Stephen (Canada) caught fire and was subsequently destroyed by the blaze. However, no-one was seriously injured.

22 people – mostly children – were saved from the building.

People on the street who saw the fire formed a human chain up a ladder and saved everyone before fire crews arrived.

Le Mar Mason was at the top of the ladder of rescuers and pulled out six children, including a baby boy.
