Fire forces evacuation of I-C-R Discoveries

No one is injured after a small lab fire in the Munro Street building that houses Genesis Genomics, among other tenants. The Fire Service's Val LaFontaine says they were called to the I-C-R Discoveries building at around 1 o'clock Tuesday afternoon and put out a small fire. He says they evacuated the building as a precaution. LaFontaine says the lab was unattended at the time of the fire which has been attributed to a chemical reaction.
