Brock Blaze

On Wednesday, January 26 at 5:13 pm, the Kindersley Fire Department was dispatched to a structure fire for mutual aid - aiding the Brock Fire Department at a structure fire on the corner of 3rd Avenue North and 1st Street West in the village of Brock.

SaskPower was able to safely de-energize the power, leaving the community without power for approximately two hours.

Additional water haulers arrived as well as a track hoe to safely remove parts of the remaining structure, which was completely destroyed.

SaskEnergy brought out a hydro vac on site to dig up and pinch off gas service.

All fire department members were safe and accounted for.

The residents of the dwelling were not home at the time of the fire, but have lost all of their belongings.

A GoFundMe page has been set up to help the couple (Dean Benjamin & Janelle Lofts House Fire). Donations can also be dropped off at the Brock Post Office.
