A fire closed Government Street between Station Street and Craig Street for several hours this morning.
RCMP and fire crews were on the scene extinguishing the blaze that erupted behind a tire shop on government street.
According to the Duncan Fire Department, a hedge, two cars, a small bus and a pile of tires for disposal were all on fire when they arrived.
The smoke caused a nearby apartment to be evacuated.
RCMP are investigating the fire and are asking anyone with information to contact the non-emergency line.
