DFR Responds to Garage Fire Near Inwood Village

Dallas Fire-Rescue responded to a call of flames coming from a detached garage at a home in the 7700 block of Morton Street, near Inwood Village, around 4:30 p.m. Aug. 1.

Dallas Fire-Rescue spokesman Jason Evans said a man and his dog were inside the home when the fire began but weren’t injured.

He said the fire was extinguished shortly before 5 p.m. Aug. 1, and the cause of the fire remains under investigation.
