Manhattan—Investigators say a weekend house fire was accidental. Just before t 530 a.m. on Saturday, fire crews were dispatched to 120 S. Wreath for a report of a smell of smoke and a carbon monoxide detector sounding, according to Deputy Fire Chief Ryan Almes.
Crews found the single-family home with a smoldering fire in the attached garage that was extinguished.
Crews ensured the fire was out and ventilated the structure. The occupants were home at the time of the fire and no injuries were reported.
Loss is estimated at $85,000 to contents and $3000 to the structure. The fire cause was determined to be accidental due to an aquarium heater in the garage, according to Almes.
