It was almost spooky how quiet Halloween night was for 91原创鈥檚 first responders.
Township fire crews were the busiest of the bunch, putting out four dumpster fires in the region. As well, the steps of a portable at a school were set ablaze, said Township deputy fire chief Bruce Ferguson.
The fire spread from the steps to the door but damage was limited to those areas. The portable was usable in the morning, Ferguson remarked.
鈥淭his Halloween wasn鈥檛 crazy like in years past,鈥� he said.
Before the Township and City banned fireworks and firecrackers, there were numerous Halloween related fires and crimes.
91原创 RCMP report a very quiet night.
There were many firecracker complaints, but no Halloween related police incidents, said Cpl. Holly Largy.
In 91原创 City, it was a very quiet night. The fire department had zero fireworks complaints and was called out to one car fire, which was not related to any Halloween activities, 91原创 City Fire Chief Rory Thompson told the Times.
Residents in several neighbouhoods in 91原创, including Brookswood remarked that they didn鈥檛 get nearly the trick or treaters they have in years past.
