Extinguishers being used as a toy...

Posted on Monday, November 25th, 2013

Over the weekend we had two incidents in which fire extinguishers were used in a non-emergency manner. One of these expelled extinguishers  caused a fire alarm in East Residence, which required a 4 vehicle emergency response from the city fire department. These incidents are an unnecessary use of emergency personnel. If you have any information regarding the expelled extinguishers in East residence please email request@fire.uoguelph.ca  These false alarms and damaged safety equipment cost everyone.
