IRONDALE — A fire destroyed a garage in the 300 block of West Kincaid Street, East Jefferson Fire Rescue said.
No one was injured.
Firefighters responded to the structure fire shortly before 8 p.m. Tuesday, the fire district stated in a press release.
They arrived to find a detached garage engulfed in flames.
The fire was out by 8:30 p.m., but due to the heat it generated, the garage’s contents were mostly destroyed, the press release said.
The residents said they began a fire in a wood stove within the structure about 7 p.m. and left the building, according to the fire district. A neighbor saw smoke and safely released two dogs from within the structure.
The Red Cross was assisting the residents.
