2026年1月5日, 位于渥太华谷地道格拉斯的一座历史性三层建筑在最近翻修的酒馆发生火灾后被烧毁。 A historic three-storey building in Douglas, Ottawa Valley, was destroyed by a fire on January 5, 2026, after flames erupted in its recently renovated tavern section. 所有6名住客和3名宠物均安全逃脱,几个小时前撤离。 All six occupants and three pets escaped safely, having evacuated hours earlier. 尽管道格拉斯消防局和5个互助单位作出了努力,但火灾迅速蔓延到隐蔽的空间,在25分钟内使原旅馆部分倒塌。 Despite efforts by the Douglas Fire Department and five mutual aid units, the fire spread rapidly through hidden spaces, collapsing the original hotel portion within 25 minutes. 供水不连贯以及大楼的复杂布局阻碍了消防工作,而用来造成断火的挖掘机则使条件恶化。 Inconsistent water supply and the building’s complex layout hampered firefighting, and an excavator used to create a fire break worsened conditions. 有关原因仍在调查之中。 The cause remains under investigation.
