2 Kids Escape House Fire In Fridley

FRIDLEY, Minn. (WCCO) -- Fire officials in Fridley are investigating a late night fire that spread through a garage and destroyed more than half a house.

The fire started a little before 10:30 p.m. Sunday in the 5500 block of Danube.

Two children who were home alone at the time said they heard popping sounds in the garage before clearing out of the home.

The kids, ages 12 and 17, both made it out safely.

The deputy fire chief says their parents were out of town but returned home late last night.
