MIDDLEBOROUGH, Mass. (WLNE) — The Middleborough Fire Department said crews battled a “fully engulfed” garage fire Wednesday morning. Around 11:35 a.m., crews responded to a fire on Oak Street after a neighbor reported smoke coming from the detached garage. At the scene, firefighters noticed heavy smoke coming from the four-bay garage and a fire reaching to the roof. Crews were able to extinguish the fire and remained on scene to confirm there were no additional flames. Officials said the building was destroyed by the fire. The garage was unoccupied when the fire occurred and no injuries were reported, according to officials. During the time of the fire, embers from the garage were transported by the wind, which caused grass and bushes to light on fire and be extinguished by crews. The fire is under investigation by the Middleborough Fire Department and Massachusetts State Police. Categories: News
