A garage in Oshkosh caught fire late last week, causing significant damage to the residence.
The Oshkosh Fire Department reports that crews were dispatched to the 4400 block of Island View Drive at around 3:00 p.m. on Friday on a report of a garage fire.
The lone occupant of the home could not get themselves out of the home, but Oshkosh Police and a good Samaritan neighbor were able to help get them out.
By the time firefighters arrived, the flames had spread to the attic and living area, but crews were able to get it under control rather quickly.
The fire was reported to be accidental, and while no one was injured, it caused an estimated $150,000 in smoke, fire, and water damage.
