Crews douse garage fire

A garage fire caused damage in Kelowna Sunday.

At 06:15 a.m. the Kelowna Fire Department Dispatch Center received a 911 call from a home owner reporting a fire in his garage in the 2400 block of Quail Run Drive.

The occupants exited the residence.

The first arriving office reported moderate smoke coming from the attached garage of a single family residence. An attack crew was sent into the garage to investigate.

A fire was located on a work bench. It had extended into the cabinets above and consumed some of the contents of the garage. The fire was quickly extinguished.

“There was no extension into the residence or any structural damage to the garage. The fire is deemed electrical in nature,” said John Kelly, platoon captain.
