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.”

8-Month-Old Baby and Parents Found Dead in Ogemaw County
January 26, 2021
Many questions need answering after a family of three was found dead in a wooded area in Rose Township.
Amanda Pomeroy, 32, Douglass Dougherty, 35, and Jacob Dougherty, 8 months, were reported missing from Bay City on Jan. 16. On Jan. 23, a snowmobiler spotted their truck while riding out near Stoney Ridge Road in Rose Township and reported it to the police. Upon arrival, they found the three family members laying in a nearby snowbank.
Ogemaw County Sheriff Brian Gilbert said the family had been known to visit the area and they’re still trying to figure out exactly what happened. “We don’t feel there’s any foul play at this time but there is an autopsy scheduled for tomorrow so that will tie a lot of loose ends,” he said.
