Wilson adds one person was injured in the fire.

"When crews arrived there was a male who sustained some injuries during this event who was transported to U of A Hospital with serious, but non-life threatening injuries."

Toluene is commonly used in paint thinners, leather tanners, and disinfectants. (ks,blb)
