SAINT JOHN, N.B. There’s still no official word on how or why a vehicle went over a steep embankment near Reversing Falls early Sunday morning. The Saint John Fire Department says a vehicle crashed through a fence around 2:45 a.m. in Fallsview Park and rolled multiple times before landing on the beach below. There were four people in the vehicle, with three occupants able to get out on their own. The fourth occupant had to be lifted from the beach in a rope rescue and was taken to hospital with minor injuries. “Altogether there were 17 firefighters on scene,” says Acting Platoon Chief Patrick Thebeau of the Saint John Fire Department. “The car went over an edge about 60 feet.”

Fire officials are reporting only minor damage after a small fire broke out at the historic Saint John City Market.
Platoon Chief Kevin Comeau said fire crews were called to the uptown building just after 9 p.m. Thursday.
“Fire crews did get a call for a possible structure fire at the Germain Street entrance which turned out to be a small fire that had started on the roof of the entrance atrium,” Comeau said.
Comeau said fire crews quickly put out the fire and were able to contain the blaze to the area where it started.
