Valley View Condominiums, located at 1400 Pacific Ave. in downtown Brandon, went up in flames Tuesday evening around 9 p.m. As of 10:55 p.m. Brandon firefighters were on scene as the fire continued to burn.

The Brandon Police Service is requesting all evacuees to find shelter at the Salvation Army Church, located at 9 Princess Ave. East. BPS is also warning bystanders to stay away from the site due to the potential danger of the fire.
