Units arrived at the M Street call and found a single story wood framed garage with fire showing to the side and front. A fiberglass fishing boat was parked in the front of the garage door blocking access, firefighters used a hose line and protected the boat while forcing entry into the backdoor to gain access to the fire.
The boat was removed and the firefighters forced open the garage door and extinguished the fire. Statements given indicate neighbors heard a loud pop just prior to the fire. The fire is considered suspicious and is under investigation.
The Beechwood Drive incident was found to be not as reported and became a law enforcement issue with the reporting party. Humboldt County Sheriff responded to assist Humboldt Bay Fire and the scene was turned over to the deputies.
At this time Humboldt Bay Fire believes the two incidents are not related. No injuries were reported,
Arcata Fire, Loleta Fire and Samoa Peninsula Fire all responded as mutual aid to support the two incidents. As units were released from both incidents three additional calls for service were received and handled.
Humboldt Bay Fire would like to acknowledge our mutual aid partners for their response and the Eureka Public Safety Dispatchers for a job well done.
