Garage Fire Fought In Frigid Temperatures
01/17/2016

(KAIR)--Atchison firefighters were forced into Sunday night's frigid temperatures following the report of a garage fire. 

Captain Lee Kipple says the fire broke out in the garage behind the residence at 319 Atchison Street. 

Fire crews rushed to the scene around 8:40, with flames showing from the south side of the garage when they arrived. 

They went to work to suppress the blaze, remaining at the location for about an hour and forty-five minutes. 

There's no immediate word of the cause of the fire, which did leave the garage damaged. 

Kipple says the below zero temperatures made the effort more difficult, but no one was hurt.
