On Wednesday afternoon, crews from the Bel Air Volunteer Fire Company were called to a Grier Nursery Road residence, where a family member reported what he described as an explosion, with smoke coming from the inside of a workshop.
According to the Maryland Fire Marshal, those "explosions" were, in fact, the product of aerosol cans that were placed too closely to a wood stove and combusted.
The fire was contained to one corner of the garage where the wood stove and exploding cans were situated, though it caused upwards of $25,000 in damage, officials said.
No injuries were reported.
