MARLOW HEIGHTS, Md. -  

  Prince George's County firefighters are battling a three-alarm blaze at a car dealership.
 
   County fire department spokesman Mark Brady says firefighters were called to a Pontiac dealership on Auth Way in Marlow Heights late Sunday morning. 
 
   Brady says firefighters found heavy fire and smoke in the dealership's warehouse-style repair shop and the blaze extended to the roof, making it unsafe for firefighters to work inside the structure.
 
   Second and third alarms were sounded to bring additional firefighters and equipment to the scene. 
 
   No injuries have been reported.
