The crew of the HMCS "Kingston" extinguished a minor engine room fire on Apr 12, 2014. The fire broke out at 10:52 a.m. in the forward engine room on the ship's return trip to Halifax after a six week mission in the Caribbean in waters near the Carolinas. The rapid response team was able to knock out what appeared to be an electrical fires and thus minimized damage. HMCS "Kingston"’s systems were not affected by the fire. All 36 crew members remained unharmed and the ship did not require external assistance. HMCS "Kingston" and HMCS "Glace Bay", which was also part of the mission, were still scheduled to arrive in Halifax on Apr 16.
