Everyone is safe after a garage fire near Birchmount Road and Lawrence Avenue late on Sunday night.

Emergency crews were called to Flora Drive just before 10 p.m. Firefighters said that propane tanks were being stored in the garage, which made fighting the fire more difficult.

The garage was completely gutted.

The garage is not connected to the home, and the fire did not spread to neighbouring buildings. Everyone inside the home made it out safely.

The cause of the fire and the cost of the damage are not yet known.
