A firefighter was injured Monday in a blaze that destroyed a home on Garvin Road, officials said. About 23 firefighters, along with police and ambulances, responded to the fully-involved fire at 220 Garvin Road Monday afternoon. A man, who was not identified, was in the garage working on a car when the fire started, but he was able to get out safely, Fire Chief David Beradesca said. The man’s wife arrived on scene later. One firefighter was hurt on scene, officials said. When firefighters arrived at about 1 p.m., they observed “heavy fire” and smoke coming from the garage area. Beradesca said the blaze had already engulfed the attic area and spread across the length of the home.
