    Toronto fire crews have evacuated the Eaton Centre as a precautionary measure after several vehicles caught on fire in a parking garage.

    A spokesperson with Toronto fire tells CityNews that three cars were on fire on the third floor of the mall’s parking garage.

    Firefighters extinguished the fire, and first responders quickly worked to clear the smoke from inside the Eaton Centre as they searched adjacent floors.

    A large crowd of shoppers congregated outside Eaton Centre after the mall’s evacuation. No injuries have been reported.

    Toronto fire urged everyone to avoid the area.
