There were some tense moments for people at Regina's Souls Harbour this morning when smoke forced them to leave the rescue mission and soup kitchen.
Alarms started going off at 1836 Halifax St. around 6:12 a.m. CST. When fire crews arrived moments later, they started evacuating the building.
About 20 people were forced to leave their rooms, but were allowed back in a short time later.
A pot had been left in the oven and had overheated, causing some smoke in the kitchen area, according to firefighters.
No one was hurt and damage was minor.
