On the morning of April 22, 2026, Preble Fire Department was dispatched to assist Decatur Fire Department on a reported house explosion that quickly escalated into a working structure fire.

Preble responded with manpower, Engine 408, and Cascade 441. Upon arrival, crews found heavy fire involvement in the attached garage extending into the main portion of the home. Crews from Preble worked on scene for approximately 3 hours to help bring the incident under control.

We are grateful to report that no injuries occurred.

Great work by all departments involved in bringing this incident to a safe conclusion. A special thank you to Ossian Fire Dept and Bluffton Fire Territory for covering the Preble area while our crews were committed.

Strong teamwork keeps our communities safe. 🚒
