A Princes St, Wortmanville resident died yesterday afternoon after he collapsed upon seeing a fire destroying the apartment building that he and others called their home.
The deceased, Gavin North, who was a driver at the Ministry of Indigenous Peoples’ Affairs, was a tenant at the Lot 48 Princes Street building.
The man, who appeared to be in his 50s, was not at home at the time of the fire but fainted after he arrived at the scene.
