Firefighters quickly prevented an electric vehicle fire from spreading after the car crashed into the exterior wall of a business parking garage in the 13100 block of Magnolia Street in Garden Grove at about 3:00 a.m. on Saturday morning, according to the OCFA.

The firefighters confined the fire to just the vehicle and the exterior of the building — saving the attached business.
