A firefighter has been taken to hospital after fire engulfed a garage at Toronto.
Crews were called to Oak Street just after 10.30pm on Wednesday to find the garage well alight.
A retained firefighter, who was wearing protective gloves, suffered a minor burn to his hand - he was treated at the scene before being taken by a private vehicle to the John Hunter Hospital for further treatment and observation.
Firefighters took about an hour to extinguish and mop up the blaze.
Meanwhile, about 40 people were evacuated from the Muswellbrook Workers Club at about 9.10pm on Wednesday after the smell of gas was detected in the basement.
However, no leak was found and fire crews gave the all clear after about 15 minutes.
