A garage fire had residents rushed out of their home on Sumac Road in Rutland during the early morning hours of Nov. 2.

Emergency crews responded to a blaze on Sumac, between Felix and Aldon Road at about 6:30 a.m.

Crews saw heavy smoke and flames coming from an attached garage of a home. Because of the severity, fire crews upgraded the call to a second alarm.

The fire was extinguished and because of the quick response, the fire was contained to just the garage and a portion of the roof. There is minimal damage to the house, according to the Kelowna Fire Department (KFD). However, a pick-up truck and travel trailer were also damaged.

The blaze is not believed to be suspicious, however, investigators will be looking into the cause.

Assistant Fire Chief of Mitigation and Prevention Dennis Craig said the residents were awake at the time of the blaze and able to self-evacuate.
