Two garage fires knocked out the electricity in a Chicago neighborhood Friday night.

Crews battled the blaze, which broke out about 7 p.m. in Logan Square, WGN-TV reports. Video from a WGN helicopter showed flames jumping to nearby power lines, causing lights and air conditioners to go out.

Windy conditions also carried the flames to a neighboring garage and sparked the second fire. No injuries were reported, and the cause of both blazes is under investigation, WGN added.
