It was a busy morning for firefighters who responded to two separate fires on Lethbridge’s south side.

Just after 3 a.m., crews responded to a shed fire in the 300 block of 23 Street South.

The fire spread to a fence and small utility trailer before firefighters were able to put it out.

About an hour later, the fire department was called to a garage fire in the 600 block of 15 Street South.

The fire was quickly brought under control.

It’s unclear if the fires are connected in any way.

Both fires remain under investigation.
