The garage fire was called in just after 4 a.m. Wednesday, and after firefighters extinguished the flames, the garage collapsed during salvage and overhaul, according to CFD Commissioner Annette Nance-Holt.

A mayday alarm was immediately called in just before 4:20 a.m. and Meyer, 54, was taken to a hospital.
