Peru’s fire chief said late Monday the cause of a fire in the 1900 block of Shooting Park Road remains undetermined, but is not suspicious.

Chief Jeff King told the Peru City Council he was pleased with firefighters and a fast-thinking city employee who saw the smoke and alerted authorities. The swift response enabled firefighters to keep the garage fire from entering the living quarters.

“Nobody got hurt,” King said, “and it worked out well.”

Two occupants were safely evacuated from the ranch-style home at the southeast corner of Shooting Park Road and Schuyler Street.
