Hamilton firefighters managed to stop a shed fire from spreading to an East End retirement home early Wednesday.

Six units were dispatched to Montgomery Retirement Living at 1605 Main Street East around 6 a.m.

A shed at the back of the property was on fire, and it had spread to a garage next door, said fire safety officer Bob Simpson.

Firefighters managed to douse the flames and get things under control before it spread to the retirement home.

No one was injured.
