THUNDER BAY -- A Thunder Bay Hotel is facing fines following recent fire code violations.

In a release issues Wednesday, Thunder Bay Fire Rescue said they were alerted to the problem last week through a tip from the public about a Memorial Avenue hotel that was wedging open its fire doors.

The fire service said that defeats the purpose of the fire doors, which are designed to prevent flames and smoke from spreading through a building in the event of fire.

The business was cited for two violations, which carry fines of $360 apiece.
