A fire Wednesday evening destroyed the garage of a home on Gilead Lane in Paso Robles.

Shortly before 8 p.m., firefighters arrived to find the garage completely engulfed in flames and residents outside. Firefighters quickly contained the blaze to the garage
before it reached the living quarters.

There were no reports of any injuries.

Cal Fire and Atascadero firefighters assisted Paso Robles fire personnel with extinguishing the blaze. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.

An unattended dryer in the garage is a good guess as to the cause.

What would qualify as an ‘attended’ dryer?

I meant that, if you leave the dryer on and then leave the house, a fire could start and you would not be at home to notice it. This happened to a friend of mine some years ago.
