Arlington Heights firefighters were called to 14oo Thomas Street for a fire in an attached garage of a ranch house. Companies arrived to find small explosions apparently from fireworks stored inside the garage. The alarm was upgraded to a Code 4 for the working fire bringing additional units from Arlington Heights as well as from Buffalo Grove and Wheeling.
Fire communicated into the house and was knocked down within a half hour. The house required extensive overhaul and companies were on the scene for quite a while. There were no injuries reported.
