THE FRANKLIN COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE RECEIVED A CALL REPORTING A STRUCTURE FIRE LAST NIGHT JUST BEFORE 10:00 IN THE WELLSVILLE AREA. UPON ARRIVING AT THE SCENE, IN THE 3000 BLOCK OF RILEY TERRACE, FIRST RESPONDERS FOUND A GARAGE FULLY ENGULFED IN FLAMES. THE OWNER OF THE GARAGE, 37-YEAR-OLD DANIEL BOWDEN OF WELLSVILLE, REPORTED THAT THE BUILDING CAUGHT FIRE DUE TO A SUSPECTED ELECTRICAL ISSUE.
ALTHOUGH FIRE CREWS ARRIVED QUICKLY AND WERE ABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FLAMES, THE BUILDING WAS ESTIMATED TO BE A TOTAL LOSS.
