3/8/17 - Rives-Tompkins Twp garage fire, 2250 E. Territorial Rd

Just as a day long event of strong winds was starting to subside, the Rives Tompkins Fire Department was dispatched to a garage fire at 2250 E. Territorial Rd on Wednesday, March 8, 2017 at 6:09 PM. A tree in the backyard of this address had fallen, bringing live power lines down which energized a detached two car garage, starting a fire. When firefighters arrived they found their access restricted by the power lines laying along the length of the yard and across the road in front of the address. Mutual aid was requested from the Henrietta Township and Leslie fire departments for tankers and manpower. Personnel could not initially attack the fire due to the building being energized, so initial efforts were placed entirely on protecting the nearby house from the wind driven flames. When command deemed it safe to do so, the garage itself was extinguished and overhaul completed.
