An early morning fire destroyed a former school building in the Hull sector of Gatineau early Sunday.

The fire started around 2:40 a.m. in a two-story abandoned building at 100 Gamelin St.

The building was owned by the city of Gatineau, but had previously been used by the Le Collège préuniversitaire Nouvelles Frontières.

No one was injured, but the building was destroyed.

Gatineau police are treating the fire as suspicious.
