The Las Vegas Department responded to a fire about 10 a.m. in a large, detached garage behind a one-story house located at 1409 Stevens St. near Pecos Road and Owens Avenue.
Firefighters gained control of the fire after about 10 minutes and kept it from spreading to the main house, the department said.
