MFD, JCFD 3 Crews Tackle Early Morning Garage Fire
Medford Fire crews responded to a garage fire at a single-family home around 2:35 a.m. today.
With assistance from Jackson County Fire District 3, crews arrived to find an active fire in the garage, and quickly began an exterior attack. The fire had only minimally extended into the living space, with some smoke staining in the kitchen and front living area.
Damage to the interior of the home was minimal. Both residents were transported for evaluation, with one experiencing minor smoke inhalation. Two dogs inside the home also made it out safely. No other injuries were reported.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation. MFD personnel remind the public that working smoke alarms can provide critical early warning during a fire. Test your alarms regularly and replace batteries or alarms as needed.
