An overnight fire destroyed a detached one-stall garage in the Uhrichsville area overnight.
The fire was in the 100 block of north Wardell Street, just inside Mill Township and was reported around 4:45 a.m.
Dennison fire chief Dave McConnell says the garage had a motorcycle, tools, auto parts, and other items inside. He puts the damage estimate at five thousand dollars.
Nobody was injured and nothing else was damaged as crews were able to prevent the fire from spreading to a nearby camper.
McConnell says he believes a wood burner in the garage was to blame for the fire. Uhrichsville and Tusky firefighters assisted, and they were on scene about an hour and 40 minutes in all.
