No one hurt, outbuilding destroyed in $100K west London fire

Damage is estimated at $100,000 after a blaze outside of an apartment building in west London.

An outbuilding that was being used for storage at 30 Baseline Road, west of Wharncliffe Road South went up in flames around 7 p.m. on Sunday.

The fire filled the common area of the apartment building with smoke. Firefighters extinguished the blaze and vented the smoke from the first floor of the highrise.

The outbuilding was destroyed, but the quick actions of firefighters stopped the flames from spreading to the main building, the London Fire Department said in a post on social media.

No injuries were reported.

Fire prevention investigators have deemed the cause of the fire was "incendiary".
