Three people, including two firefighters, have been transported to the hospital after a residential fire in York Wednesday afternoon.

Emergency crews were called to a home on Louvain Street, near Humber Boulevard and Weston Road, just before 3 p.m.

When officers arrived at the scene, they saw heavy smoke on the first and second floor of the home.

Paramedics said that a man sustained burn injuries and was taken to a hospital in serious condition.

One firefighter was transported to a local hospital with minor burns and another was transported as a precaution after his helmet melted, police said.
