HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- The fire lit up the night sky. The sound of car horns blaring as flames destroyed five cars in a Houston auto shop.
The fire started at the back of Poutous Auto Repair on Mills Road just before 2 a.m. Thursday.

The Fire Marshall says the cause of the fire is still under investigation.
The owner said the shop has an older RV on site that had electricity running to it. He believes the fire may have something to do with that.
He is currently taking an inventory of the damaged vehicles, filing insurance forms and getting ready to contact the owners of the cars to tell them what happened.
