REGINA – A string of garage fires in Regina has prompted the Regina Fire Department to issue a warning to residents.

Two garage fires occurred Friday night in the 200 block of Halifax street and St. John street.

Fire crews said a third fire occurred overnight but did not engulf a garage due to a neighbour spotting the fire.

In the past week, there have been six garage fires in the city. The Regina Police Service has been notified and continue to investigate.
