BWI parking garage temporarily closed to vehicle access, travelers told to use airport shuttle

A parking garage at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) was temporarily closed Thursday for a fire. 

Fire officials tell CBS News Baltimore a landscape worker reported the fire around 10:45 a.m. outside the Daily Garage on Elm Road. Officials say a gas leak in a manifold servicing the garage caught fire, damaging a commercial lawn mower and part of the structure. 

One person was taken to Bayview Burn Center with non-life-threatening injuries, according to fire officials. 

The flames have since been put out, and the situation is not impacting airline operations. 

The Daily Garage is a multi-level garage with more than 8,000 spaces. It's located along Terminal Road between Elm Road and Scott Drive. 

A message posted on social media around 11:15 a.m. said the garage was temporarily closed due to a small fire near Bus Stop 1. An update shared about 45 minutes later said the fire had been extinguished, but the garage remained closed. 

Then around 12:30 p.m., another update said vehicle access is still restricted, but drivers with cars already parked inside the garage can access them using the airport shuttle.
