TYRONE TOWNSHIP, Mich. — Three people were able to escape from a house fire in Kent County early Thursday morning.

The fire started at a home on 18 Mile Road NW near White Creek Road in Tyrone Township.

Fortunately, firefighters had arrived swiftly enough to get the flames under control before too much damage was done.

There were no injuries reported.
