ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — Officials say four people were taken
to the hospital after a fire at a University of Michigan fraternity
house.
Crews responded at 5:37 a.m. Saturday to the Sigma Alpha Epsilon house.
Ann Arbor fire Battalion Chief Steve Lowe tells The Ann Arbor News (http://bit.ly/1d6Te37 ) four people who suffered
smoke inhalation were taken to the
University of Michigan Hospital in stable condition and were later
released.
Firefighters assisted 20 others out of the back of the
house. Battalion Chief Kevin Cook says they "went door to door and floor
to floor and evacuated the building."
The students were disoriented from being awakened, and many of them weren’t dressed for the freezing
temperatures.
A university bus was used as a warming center.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
