The Kirkland Fire Department responded to a structure fire shortly before 3:30 p.m. on July 23 on 124th Avenue Northeast.

The road was closed between Northeast 90th and 85th streets — before being opened again an hour later.

The fire was contained to a garage of a townhouse, where the fire was ignited and fire staff from Bellevue, Woodinville and Redmond responded. An investigation is ongoing into the cause of the fire, said Kellie Stickney, with the city of Kirkland.
