Major fire in a bar

After a pretty busy day with various minor incidents, Saint-Hyacinthe's F.D. receives a call for a bar fire, with visible smoke and fire, and mention of an explosion.

The 205 unit, still at a good distance from the blaze, calls for a 10-07 when seeing the several-meters-high flammes. Given the obvious loss of the building and the absence of collateral propagation risks, a first alarm is enough to fight this suspiscious fire.
