The London Fire Department has estimated $75,000 in damages after crews were called to a blaze in the city’s east end Saturday morning.

Firefighters were called to the 1100 Block of Dobie St. – a side street near Oxford Street East and Highbury Avenue North – around 5 a.m. after being notified of a “fully involved” detached garage fire, officials wrote on social media.

Fire department officials said the blaze was out within 30 minutes of their arrival and no injuries were reported.

As a result of the blaze, the detached garage and its contents were damaged, and also an above ground pool sustained melting damage, according to the London Fire Department’s post.
