Fire destroyed a garage in the town of Oconto Thursday afternoon. Oconto Fire and Rescue Department was called at 2:21 p.m. to 4802 State 22, about 5 miles west of Oconto, where firefighters found heavy flames and smoke coming from a detached garage. The fire had already extended to a nearby enclosed car trailer, Lt. Ryan Pecha said in a news release. Fire crews quickly knocked down the flames, containing the fire to the garage and trailer. However, the amount of heat coming from the garage damaged the siding of the nearby house, he said. The garage and its contents, including a cars and tools, are a total loss. The cause remains under investigation. No firefighter or residents were injured.
