A fire Monday night in a garage, where crews also found a vehicle believed to have been stolen, has been listed as suspicious.

No one was hurt in the fire off the alley behind the 2200 South Irwin Street, but the fire was “obviously suspicious,” Dayton District Fire Chief Rennes Bowers told News Center 7.

Fire crews were dispatched at about 10 p.m. on a report of a garage fire. The fire was declared under control at about 10:27 p.m.

Bowers said the fire appears to have started in a pile of trash beside the garage. Flames spread up the side of the structure and into the roof, compromising overhead utility wires as well.

There was no other immediate information about the vehicle, which Bowers said came up as stolen when fire crews checked information about the vehicle in their computers.

Damage to the garage and the vehicle — its doors had been removed — was estimated at $20,000, Bowers said, and an arson investigator was on scene late Monday night.
