Lincoln Park garage catches fire resulting in $5,000 in damages

[Duluth, MN] At approximately 6:25p.m. Duluth Fire crews responded to the report of garage on fire on the 2100 block of West 3rd Street. When crews arrived, they reported smoke coming from the chimney and garage doors, and a small amount of flames coming from the eaves.

Upon further investigation crews reported that the fire had extended to the attic area of the garage. The 1 Tower crew was able to knock down the fire quickly, and gain access to where the fire had extended. All responding crews worked together to extinguish hot spots throughout the structure.

Crews from Headquarters, Duluth Heights, Lincoln Park, and Spirit Valley responded to the call.

The fire was investigated by the Duluth Fire Marshal’s Office and the cause was determined to be radiant heat from a stove pipe.

No one was injured as a part of this incident.

Damages are estimated at approximately $5,000.
