Carman Road closed down Wednesday night for almost two hours because of a fire that caused heavy damage to a home’s detached garage.

One tenant was taken to the hospital for treatment, and a firefighter was treated for an injury at the scene.

By the time firefighters arrived, Fort Hunter's assistant chief said, the fire was “90-percent involved” and had to be fought in “defensive mode,” meaning attacking it from a safe distance, and trying to prevent it from spreading to other neighborhood buildings.
