IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Authorities say firefighters rescued four people from an apartment building fire in Iowa City. The fire in the ground-floor apartment was reported just before 10 a.m. Thursday. Four people in the second-floor unit were blocked by heat and smoke from escaping on their own. Firefighters helped them out and down from a second-story window. No injuries have been reported.
