Atlantic Police Lt. Dave Erickson was the first to arrive on scene. He told KJAN News he saw intermittent puffs of light to heavy smoke coming from the roof of the one and a-half story home.

All the residents escaped the home without injury and were being sheltered in a neighbor’s home.

The fire was declared under control just before Noon. Additional details are currently not available.
