While it’s unclear how the fire started, it began in one of the vehicle-repair bays at the Bowser Esso and quickly spread throughout the structure.
The lone gas station in the central Island community of Bowser, about 20 kilometres north of Qualicum Beach, was destroyed in a Tuesday-night fire that brought out several fire departments.
Low-voltage power lines had melted, dropping live lines to the ground, creating a dangerous situation. Bow Horn Bay firefighters were joined by the Dashwood, Coombs-Hilliers, Qualicum Beach and Deep Bay fire departments. A total of about 60 firefighters responded just before 10 p.m. and were at the site until 3:30 a.m.
