The fire spread fast through the garage, but firefighters stood their ground and were able to keep the flames from spreading to the house.
Firefighters said they had extra incentive for getting the job done quickly.
"We had reports of possibly someone inside, so basically we went to work with the crews to extinguish the fire." said a Firefighter.
The man reported to be inside the garage was actually in the home. He was taken to the hospital to be checked out for smoke inhalation.
