A family in Durand had a very tragic event happen to them a few weeks ago. After a fire at their home, most of their belongings and possessions were destroyed. I can't even begin to imagine that heartache.
No matter what anyone says, the world is still full of heroes. On July 18th Emily Rogers' home caught fire. It was then that her boyfriend thoughtlessly ran into the home to make sure she and her son were out of the house.
Over the weekend, a fire destroyed the Islamic Center of Ypsilanti. In the investigation, authorities have identified a 16-year-old boy as the suspect.
A house fire can be devastating to anyone if it happens to them. Thankfully for this Thetford Township family, no one was hurt in the blaze and the fire was mostly contained to the garage.
You can never tell when tragedy will strike. Thankfully, this family had a good Samaritan neighbor that came to their rescue. Early Sunday morning, this families home caught fire while they slept.
Think about this. You are inside of your house, while it is on fire - but you have no idea. That is exactly what happened to a Genesee Township family. Lucky for them, they have great neighbors who came to the rescue! Another thing to think about, being nicer to your neighbors.
