Neighbors Battle Oceanside Garage Fire

Neighbors using garden hoses jumped in to help battle a garage fire in Oceanside Monday.

Smoke was pouring out of every opening of the three-car garage at the corner of Civic Center Drive and North Ditmar Street at approximately 11:30 p.m.

While someone called 911, neighbors didn’t stand by and watch. They tried to spray water on the fire until firefighters arrived.

Oceanside Fire crews had to use axes to open the garage doors and access the source of the fire.

After about 20 minutes, firefighters were able to put out the flames and the residents were able to get back in their house.
