At 7:02 pm, on February 18, the Saskatoon Fire Department received a report of a garage on fire.  Three fire engines, one rescue unit, a ladder truck and the Battalion Chief responded.  On arrival, the garage had smoke showing.  Firefighters began preparing to enter the garage.  Incoming fire crews were assigned tactical duties to perform on their arrivals.  It was reported that there was paint, acetylene, oxygen tank and a vehicle inside.  Upon entry into the garage, firefighters encountered smoke and began advancing to the area on fire.  Consideration was given to the effects of heat and flame impingement on the tanks and chemicals stored inside as a safety precaution.  Utilities were shut down.  The fire was brought under control at 7:32 pm.

The Fire Investigator on call responded to the fire scene.  A scene examination was performed.  Occupant had been doing work inside the garage an hour prior to the fire.  Cause of the fire was sparks from a grinder that caught used rags in the area on fire.  Fire originated inside the garage where the work had been performed.  Occupant heard a loud bang when it was realized the garage was on fire.  Tires being stored overhead heating and catching fire were the source of the loud bang heard.  Damage is estimated to be $100,000.

No one was hurt as a result of this fire.
