She called 9-1-1 at 7:59am and LaSalle fire crews arrived in the 8400-block moments later.
The first was quickly extinguished and caused under $5,000 damage.
Fire officials say if the refrigerator motor had burned out in the middle of the night, it would have ended much differently.
SPS Board Chair Kelly Ash said the decision followed discussions with Acting Chief Mike Federico and aligns with practices at other police services.
The annual Canada Day parade will begin at 11 a.m. on Saturday, June 27, from Wildwood Park to Kenwick Park.
The $7.6 million project, which also involved water and sewer infrastructure improvements, began in 2024.
The Toronto Blue Jays dropped their third in a row Thursday, 6-5 to the visiting Texas Rangers, and the Detroit Tigers suffered a 2-1 loss to Houston.
The week-long celebration starts on Saturday and continues to next Friday.
Environment Canada said Thursday night that severe thunderstorms were moving further east after rain and high winds affected portions of the region.
