UPDATE:

West 琉璃神社 fire crews arrived on scene to find a detached garage in a fully-involved blaze.

According to assistant fire chief Brent Watson, intense flames and heat from the burning garage, which was filled with tires, electronics and motorcycles, ignited an adjacent car, torched the sides of two travel trailers and a shed.

The primary residence also suffered damage to siding, yard furniture and ornamental trees. While two neighbouring homes had the siding melted off.

Crews were able to control and suppress the fire using multiple hose lines.

Watson explained, the property owner has insurance, but did suffer a minor burn attempting to extinguish the fire.

The fire is not suspicious and is currently under investigation, although it is likely electrical in nature.
