Fire breaks out after deadly incident at Canadian military base

ABC News shows emergency responders, military personnel and stretchers beside an ambulance as it reports on the deadly explosion and fire at Canadian Forces Base Wainwright in Alberta.

Prime Minister Mark Carney says at least four service members were killed and dozens more were seriously wounded. The brief report shows the base's entrance sign before turning to the emergency response.

The anchor cites Canada's defense minister on the investigation: police are actively involved, and there are no indications of terrorist activity. That statement does not establish what caused the explosion and fire.

The Short drew about 186,000 views in its first nine hours, already far beyond the audience an ABC News Short usually reaches over a full first day. The network has also posted a separate report, "At least 4 killed in Alberta, Canada, military disaster," and included the incident in its World News Tonight broadcast.
