BATTLE CREEK (WKZO AM/FM) — Battle Creek Fire investigators say quick response to a garage fire at 81 Christie Road early Thursday afternoon kept the flames from spreading to the home, but still caused about $60,000 of damage to the garage and its contents.
Crews rolling up to the scene found heavy black smoke coming from the garage, and the owner outside, saying the fire started in his car and that his dog was still inside the home.
The flames were quickly extinguished and the dog was rescued but the car is probably totaled.
