Yarmouth firefighters responded to a house fire in Rockville on the Chebogue Road around 2:30 a.m.
Spokesman Lynn Seeley says the vacant house was destroyed.
Lake Vaughn, Wedgeport and Port Maitland fire departments also attended the scene.
The Yarmouth Fire Department had to return later when it rekindled.
Seeley says later in the day they were called to a garage-apartment fire in John’s Cove.
He says the owner lost many personal possessions.
They attended a call of smoke in a basement and also responded with EHS to a medical emergency.
