Weekend fire investigated at former Windsor school

Windsor Fire and Rescue is investigating a fire that broke out at a former elementary school.

Few details have been released, but fire officials say crews were called shortly before 2 p.m. on Sunday to the former St. Jules Catholic Elementary School on Norman Road near Guy Street.

Firefighters arrived and found flames coming from the rear of the property.

No one was injured. Fire officials are still determining the place of origin, cause, and damage estimate.

According to the City's Municipal Heritage Register, the St. Jules building was erected in 1924 and placed on the register in 2013.

The building has been closed since 2017.

More to come.
