A garage was destroyed and two homes damaged in a fire after burning in barrels got out of control, according to the Morehead City Fire Chief.
Jamie Fulk says they got the call just before 5:00 p.m. Wednesday to the 1400 block of Highway 24 for a garage fully engulfed in flames.
Fulk says grass and woods then caught on fire, spreading to the home of the person’s garage that was destroyed, and a neighbor’s home. There was also damage to another yard and fence.
There were no injuries reported. In addition to Morehead City Fire, Broad and Gales Creek and Newport were also on scene.
