CONCORD, CA — Someone smoking is being given as the cause of a residential fire last week that damaged a garage and two cars in Concord, the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District said.
Crews responded just before 9:30 p.m. Wednesday to 2626 Richard Ave., where they found the garage fully involved, along with two cars in the driveway.
A high-voltage wire came down and complicated getting access, but the fire was extinguished in less than 20 minutes, officials said.
