CARROLLTON, Texas — Fire crews responded to a large blaze right behind a fire station in Carrollton on Sunday night.
The fire happened behind the station at 2155 East Rosemeade Parkway, near Kelly Boulevard.
City officials said crews responded around 9:20 p.m. after a transformer and a tree caught fire. The station itself was not on fire.
The flames appeared to be out as of 10:20 p.m. as crews remained at the scene.
Officials said the fire caused an outdoor warning siren to activate for about 40 seconds. The siren was also damaged and is out of service. The office of emergency management will work to get the siren back into service.
The blaze also affected power in the surrounding area, but officials did not say to what extent.
