SC FIRE DEPT HAS BUSY SUNDAY

SUNDAY WAS A BUSY DAY FOR SIOUX CITY FIREFIGHTERS, WHO RESPONDED  TO THREE SEPARATE INCIDENTS.

A DUMPSTER FIRE IN THE LOADING DOCK BEHIND THE SIOUX CITY MUSEUM WAS REPORTED SHORTLY AFTER 1PM. INVESTIGATORS SAY A TOSSED CIGARETTE BY A TRANSIENT LIKELY STARTED THE FIRE.

NO MAJOR DAMAGE WAS REPORTED AND A SPRINKLER HEAD ABOVE THE DUMPSTER PUT OUT MOST OF THE FIRE BEFORE RESPONDERS ARRIVED.

LATER A FIRE WAS REPORTED AT A HOME  IN THE 6200 BLOCK OF MORNINGSIDE AVENUE. THAT BLAZE DAMAGED BOTH THE FIRST FLOOR AND ATTIC.

SOON AFTERWARDS, A FIRE IN THE 500 BLOCK OF SOUTH IRENE DESTROYED A DETACHED GARAGE, AND DAMAGED TWO OTHER NEARBY GARAGES.
 

THE CAUSES OF THE MORNINGSIDE FIRES REMAIN UNDER INVESTIGATION.
NO INJURIES WERE REPORTED.
