Garland Fire Department investigating cause of explosive fire at Duck Creek Golf Club

GARLAND, Texas — The Garland Fire Department is looking into what led to a fire at a local golf clubhouse early Thanksgiving morning.

A department representative said crews responded to a large fire at the Duck Creek Golf Club on Diamond Oaks Drive at about 3 a.m. Thursday. Shortly after they got there, there was a loud explosion from the clubhouse that many people nearby heard and/or felt. 

The department pointed out that the explosion was a result of the fire, not the cause. The cause of the fire is under investigation, but it’s not believed it was started intentionally.
