San Francisco fire crews doused a car fire in the city's Dolores Heights neighborhood early Sunday morning, fire officials said, not far from the location of four other car fires on Wednesday.

Firefighters responded to a report of a car fire at 126-132 Hartford St. in San Francisco at 3:02 a.m., a fire dispatcher said.

The cause of the fire was still under investigation, but the dispatcher said arson teams responded to the incident.

He could not say whether the fire was related to four others nearby that were reported on Wednesday.

Later Sunday, arson crews were investigating a one-alarm fire that originated in a garage in San Francisco's Bayview neighborhood, a fire dispatcher said.

Firefighters responded to a fire at a two-story wooden building at 1313 Palou Ave., the dispatcher said.

The building was evacuated and no one was transported to the hospital, according to the dispatcher.

Firefighters contained the blaze to the garage by 5:45 p.m. but crews were still on scene as of 6:30 p.m., the dispatcher said.

The dispatcher said arson investigators also responded to the location and were working to determine the cause of the fire.
