MISSISSAUGA, Ont. — A fire has gutted the Toronto Argonauts’ training facility at the University of Toronto’s Mississauga campus.

The blaze broke out early Saturday morning and police say it’s not yet clear what set it off.

The Argos released a statement saying no one was injured in the fire and that an investigation is currently underway to determine the cause.

The team also said it has yet to determine where the Argos will practice for the 2012 CFL season.

Images of the fire show smoke and fire billowing out of the white portable building used to house the team’s football operations staff, players’ dressing rooms and equipment room.

The Argos players work out at a separate building on the Erindale campus.
