The fire was first reported at 2:30 p.m., with fire and smoke seen coming from the garage of a two-story condominium complex, Fire Department Supervisor Michael Pittman told The Signal.

“They knocked the fire down at 2:45 p.m.,” he said.  “There were no extensions of the fire into the adjacent building.

“And, there were no injuries. But, some vehicles were damaged in the fire,” Pittman said.

Cars burned included a Shelby Cobra and what appeared to be a 70’s Mustang.

Firefighters were still at the scene “mopping up” as of 3 p.m.
