Early this morning the Dauphin Fire Department responded to reports of a fire on Forrest Avenue West in Dauphin.
When the DFD arrived on the scene neighbors advised firefighters that the fire was in a garage in the back lane.
The fire was caught early after a neighbor woke up to a loud bang and noticed the fire and immediately called 911.
Thanks to the quick response by the DFD the fire was quickly contained and extinguished without spreading to nearby buildings.
The cause of the fire was accidental due to an electrical short.
There were no injuries as a result of the fire and there are no estimates on damages at this time.
