Crews made quick work of a fire that started at a detached garage and welding shop west of Petaluma. The fire started where someone had been working on cars shortly before 4 o’clock Sunday afternoon. Reports saying the flames had spread to nearby brush turned out to be untrue. But, the fire made a lot of dark smoke, prompting several 911 calls. Crews from five different agencies got the fire under control in about a half hour. No one was injured.
