Investigators are looking into what sparked a fire that heavily damaged the Garfield Township Volunteer Fire Department's station in northern Bay County on Thursday morning.

The blaze broke out before 9 a.m. on Erickson Road, southwest of Pinconning. A passerby spotted the flames and alerted authorities, bringing crews from across the county to the scene. Several fire trucks and equipment inside the building were also damaged.

No injuries were reported, and nearby roads that were temporarily closed during firefighting efforts have since reopened.
