Vancouver firefighters were able to quickly extinguish a garage fire early Saturday morning, preventing damage to the rest of a Mill Plain area home.
Vancouver Fire Department crews were dispatched about 3:30 a.m. to the 17700 block of Northeast 38th Way for the report of a residential structure fire.
The first crew to arrive at the scene found a fire burning inside the garage of a two-story home, said Cpt. Dave James.
Firefighters cut open the garage door and doused the flames with a single waterline. The fire was extinguished within 10 minutes, James said.
