Garage, truck fire, battled in Atchison Saturday
01/25/2025

(KAIR)--The Atchison Fire Department, early Saturday morning while assisting at the scene of an armed Atchison standoff, were called to a structure fire on the City's south side, where a garage, behind the residence at 717 Y Street, was found engulfed in flames, as well as a nearby pickup truck.

According to Atchison Fire Chief Patrick Weishaar, firefighters, after arriving shortly after 1:00, "were able to extinguish both fires preventing any major damage to the single-family home and a nearby neighboring garage."

Firefighters remained on the scene for a short time after the fire was extinguished "to investigate and ensure the fire was out." That investigation into the cause of the fire was continuing Saturday.

No injuries are reported.
