The Maryland State Fire Marshal’s Office says the cause of a garage fire in Hagerstown Thursday afternoon was accidental.
At 1:20 PM, about 15 fire fighters were dispatched to 10653 Bower Avenue for a 24×24 detached garage on fire. They spent 30-minutes bringing the flames under control.
There were no injuries.
Damage is estimated at $40,000 to both the structure and its contents.
Investigators say the fire resulted from an electrical malfunction in a lawn mower battery charger.
Fire officials says the garage is a total loss.
