A Corinna auto repair shop that was destroyed in a 2012 fire was damaged in another fire Sunday night, according to fire officials.

The fire was reported at around 6 p.m. Sunday at Southern Auto on Dexter Road, said Corinna Fire Chief Allen Emerson.

The fire started in an older model Ford Mustang that was in the garage, but officials were still working to determine a cause on Monday, Emerson said.

No one was at the garage and there were no injuries reported, said Assistant Fire Chief Shawn Henderson. The shop belongs to Toby Gould and was destroyed by a fire in 2012, Emerson said.

The inside of the garage was destroyed Sunday night, but the structure is still standing, Henderson said.

Fire crews from Dexter, Garland and Newport assisted and were on the scene for about two hours, he said.
