Just after 14:40 Bryn Mawr Fire Company was dispatched to the 600 block of Woodleave Road for a reported garage fire. First arriving units reported smoke from the area of the garage. A quick attack on the garage coordinated with an interior crew found the fire had spread to the second floor and attic areas. Crews from station 23 along with all other Lower Merion fire companies worked quickly to open ceilings and walls to find and extinguish the fire. Extensive overhaul was required before the fire could be brought under control. Crews remained on scene for over three hours before returning to their stations. Great job by everyone involved making a stop on the fire and keeping the damage confined as much as possible.
