LA JUNTA, Colo. (KRDO) -- The La Junta Fire Department says it responded to a structure fire over Thanksgiving.
According to the department, they were called out just before 10:30 p.m. on Thursday for a detached garage fire in the 1800 block of West 4th Street.
"Cross lays were pulled, and crews made a quick offensive attack," read a post from the fire department.

The La Junta Fire Department says they believe the cause of the fire was hot ashes that had been put in a trash can a day or two before.
