Multiple Auto Shop Fires Cause Major Damage in Houston, Washington County, Naugatuck

Several significant fires have recently impacted auto repair shops across the United States. In Houston, a fire destroyed Rollo’s Solutions, a tire, wheel, and body shop operating since 1989, causing total loss of the building and damaging nearby properties; the Houston Fire Department's arson division is investigating the cause. In Cecil Township, Pennsylvania, a fire early Thursday morning consumed most of Horne's Auto Service garage and spread to the attached residence, though all occupants escaped safely; the intense flames melted siding on nearby buildings, and the cause remains under investigation. Similarly, a fire in Naugatuck, Connecticut, broke out at Autohaus, Inc., involving a car inside the shop; fire crews extinguished the blaze with two hose lines while the fire marshal’s office investigates. These incidents highlight ongoing fire risks at auto shops, with investigations underway to determine causes and prevent future occurrences.
