2 children dead in fire
Mills Township, Michigan (WNEM ) — A two-year-old and a five-year-old are dead, their parents badly burned, and three other kids were hurt in a Mills Township fire.
“Just a horrible thing for those kids to die like that,” said Ryan Mills, a man who lived down the street.
He said the sirens woke him up at 8:00 this morning.
Fire crews were dispatched to the home on First Oak Road, but by the time they arrived the home was engulfed in flames.
Ogemaw County Sheriff Brian Gilbert said his heart goes out to this family.
“It was tragic, we as responders don’t like seeing that sort of thing,” Gilbert said. “We’re going to try to set up some kind of intervention to talk with the individuals involved.”
