BEND, OR -- A storage shed for a southeast Bend garden center was destroyed by fire, Wednesday. Crews responded to the Southeast 27th Street property just before noon and found the detached garage well involved, with flames spreading to the roof and attic of a nearby home.
Bend Fire says the building housed fertilizer and pesticides for the Moonfire and Sun Garden Center, next door, and was under a power line, which combined to make fighting the blaze more hazardous.
The cause of the fire is under investigation; it caused an estimated $70,000 in damage.
