A man has burns to 90 per cent of his body after a fire at Carleton University Tuesday afternoon.
Firefighters say the 25-year-old was found by university security on the second floor of a garage around 1:30 p.m.
They say he was conscious but in shock when they arrived and immediately treated for his trip to the hospital.
There was no damage to the garage or anything in the area where the man was found.
Ottawa police are investigating.
Carleton University says the parking garage is closed to anyone except those with cars already inside. However, if your car is on the third floor you will not be able to leave.

I feel that if certain organs were in demand, less effort would be made to revive people. Am I being silly? Not really. I had a bad experience in hospital when my heart stopped, the doctors tried to revive me and failed. They stopped and said I was gone. I came around on my own when the nurse was giving a final BP reading of 'zero'. I heard her declare me dead! It was all I could do to shake my head but they never caught on til I was able to open my eyes. You should have seen them scramble then! I thought the nurse was going to faint. The thing is, I think we may write people off too soon when there is something of value to be gained from them.
