Milwaukee firefighters are investigating to determine the cause of a fire Saturday that left a garage and four houses damaged.
"I was just looking out of my window and I saw a garage on fire and I came outside and then the house caught on fire right afterward," a neighbor, Michael G., told WISN.
Battalion Chief Joel Rechlitz said they found a garage completely engulfed in flames, and spreading to adjacent homes. Wauwatosa firefighters responded to assist.
"After further investigation, there was some spot fires in the house that was to the west that was not related, necessarily, to the garage fire. Which obviously, caused some concern and upgraded this response significantly so that we could handle, essentially, three separate fires," Rechlitz said, adding that he does not believe the spot fires were a result of the garage fire spreading.
