Fire damages Perry auto shop
Firefighters this morning battled a blaze at an automotive garage at 204 Front St. in Perry.
Several area fire departments were called to the fire, which started shortly after 10 a.m.
Authorities said a gasoline tank ignited when it was being removed from a vehicle.
The cinder block and metal roof building, as well as the heat, made it difficult for firefighters to extinguish the fire, which smoldered for several hours.
