Early Wednesday morning, March 26th, at approximately 1 a.m., the Fort Worth Fire Department received multiple reports of a garage fire in the 3800 block of Bellaire Circle, located in the Westcliff area. Crews arrived on scene within two minutes to find a large detached two-story guest house engulfed in flames, with a vehicle also ablaze. The fire was rapidly spreading to a neighboring property.

Firefighters immediately deployed a two-inch attack line to fight the fire, and the Incident Commander requested a second alarm due to the extent of the blaze and the size of the structures involved. Additional crews were dispatched to assist in protecting the nearby homes and contents.

After 40 minutes of intense firefighting efforts, the fire was brought under control, and the neighboring home was spared from significant damage. All residents of the affected homes had evacuated safely. One firefighter sustained minor injuries and was treated on-site. The cause of the fire is currently under investigation.
