Officials said an occupant of the property was treated for minor burns and smoke inhalation but did not want to go to the hospital.

After firefighters extinguished the blaze they remained at the scene due to the flammable nature of a nearby wood pile and the amount of burning garage content.

They were able to prevent the fire from damaging the property residence. Other structures close by only received heat damage.

Officials said on social media that the fire seems to be unintentional.
