It's the second fatal fire in as many days.

Fire crews were called to a condo complex in the 700 block of Dovercourt Drive just before 2 a.m. on Wednesday following reports of the smell of smoke and fire alarm activation.

When crews arrived on scene, smoke could be seen coming form one unit.

Neighbours quickly told firefighters that there may still be someone in the unit. Crews conducted a search and quickly located the resident.

The person was transported to hospital in critical condition, but passed away a short time later.

The unit suffered significant fire, smoke and water damage. The neighbouring unit was not damaged, however occupants were relocated for the night as electricity to the structure was turned off. The complex was equipped with a working fire alarm system.

The cause of the fire is under investigation. No damage estimates are available at this time.

A second fire on Boyd Avenue on Tuesday claimed the life of one person and left another in critical condition.

The cause of that fire is still under investigation.
