CARTER COUNTY, Tenn. -

Firefighters were on the scene of a garage fire Saturday afternoon in Carter County. It happened on Cedar Grove Road around 1:00pm.

News 5 spoke with  Lt. David Howland of the West Central Carter Co. Fire Department who told us the building "had wood stacked next to wood burning stove inside the garage. It obviously got too hot and ignited that and just went from there and got into the whole structure."

No one was inside at the time. The garage is a total loss.
