The Omaha Fire Department says a fire on the exterior of a garage at a house near 66th and Hartman Avenue was an accident: the probable cause was an engine compartment fire in a vehicle parked in the drive that spread to the exterior siding of the residence, but not inside the single story house.
The fire around 8:30 Tuesday morning was brought under control in minutes.
The Fire Department says neighbors called 911 and alerted the people inside, who safely escaped.
