INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — All six adults inside a house on the city’s west side escaped safely after a fire broke out Sunday afternoon, the Indianapolis Fire Department said.
Fire crews were called just after 12 p.m. to a fire at a home in the 3600 block of West Michigan Street. That’s a neighborhood just east of Holt Road, about 2 miles south of Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Firefighters arrived and found heavy smoke and fire at the back of a two-story house.
Crews had the fire under control in about 30 minutes.
The six adults made it out of the house unhurt but they will need to find a different place to stay, IFD said on Facebook.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
