Summer School Students Sent Home After Fire

ST. PAUL (WCCO) -- Students at a St. Paul summer school program were dismissed Wednesday after a small fire at Central High School.

Authorities said the mechanical fire was contained with no injuries to students or staff, but the smoke was significant enough to lead to an early dismissal.

The students were attending programs for Ramsey Junior High School and Central Senior High School. They would normally be released at 2:45 p.m.

Sessions will resume on Thursday as normal.
