Last night, the Las Cruces Fire Department was called to a fire that erupted in a detached garage behind a residence on Greening Avenue. The incident, which took place around 8:30 p.m. Wednesday, was tackled by firefighters who managed to quell the flames shortly after their arrival, preventing the fire from spreading to the nearby home, as reported by the Las Cruces Fire Department.
Upon reaching the scene in the 100 block of Greening Avenue, crews encountered heavy smoke that billowed from the structure, a sight that underscored the urgency of the situation. While the garage was being consumed by flames, luckily, it was announced that no injuries occurred. The hard work and quick response of the firefighters ensured that the inferno was contained to the garage and the adjacent house was spared.
The investigation into what sparked the blaze is still ongoing, and at this time, there is no word on the estimated cost of the damage sustained. Nevertheless, the Las Cruces Fire Department has not yet released any further details regarding the potential cause or the financial impact of the fire. More information is expected to follow as the situation develops.
