fire

Firefighters found smoke coming through the front of a detached garage through its overhead door.

The smoke and flames were captured by a MnDOT traffic camera.

Officials say the fire started in a room.

The occupants and their dog were outside of the home by the time an officer arrived at the scene.

The fire was found in the basement of the vacant building.

A passerby alerted the fire department.

Neighbors rescued two residents after they heard the explosion.

The man was extracted from the home and taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Firefighters were at the scene for several hours.

Several silos at the farm also damaged.
