Halifax Fire says fatal apartment blaze likely caused by careless smoking HALIFAX — Officials have determined the likely cause of a fatal Dartmouth fire, where more than 100 people were displaced, was careless smoking.Deputy Chief Roy Hollett of Halifax Fire said Wednesday the service had closed its investigation into the apartment building fire on Primrose St. Hollett said the investigators interviewed apartment residents, looked through the whole building, and analyzed which floors and units were impacted.They then brought in an engineer who determined that in the area of origin there was nothing electrical that would have caused a fire, Hollett said, so they looked at other information — such as the resident in the origin apartment being a smoker.However, the fire service has to use the phrase “likely cause” because there was no direct evidence of smoking, so they can’t say “100 per cent” that was the cause, Hollett said.Firefighters responded to reports of a fire at 81 Primrose St. Northview Apartments has been keeping residents up to date with memos, Williams said, with the last one he was aware of stating it could be four to six weeks before people could get back into some parts of the building, but that was still pretty “optimistic.”
