Hoffman Estates fire engulfs garage

Hoffman Estates fire officials are investigating a garage fire early Monday morning that caused $30,000 in damage to three structures.

Firefighters responded to the 400 block of Western Street at 4:49 a.m. to find a detached garage engulfed in flames and the fire spreading to the adjacent single-family home and neighboring garage. It took 33 firefighters from several departments to bring the fire under control.

One of the residents of the home was treated for minor injuries at the scene, fire officials said. The house was habitable and residents were allowed to return.

An investigation found there were smoke detectors in the home but it is unclear whether they were working. The home did not have a sprinkler system, authorities said.
