A garage attached to a duplex at 2022 S Fawn Drive caught fire late at night on Monday and was extinguished with no injuries reported, according to the Spokane Valley Fire Department (SVFD).
The SVFD, along with the Spokane County Fire District 8, responded to the fire after receiving reports from multiple individuals, none of whom knew if the fire had spread to either of the duplex units.
The residents living in the duplex units were reportedly at home during the fire, which caused the SVFD to upgrade the response to a second alarm. After arriving and finding that the occupants had evacuated their homes safely on their own and there were no other individuals inside, the second alarm response was canceled.
