ORANGE CITY, Iowa (AP) – Authorities say three firefighters have suffered minor injuries while putting out a house fire in northwest Iowa. Sioux County authorities say the fire was reported about 2:05 p.m. Thursday in Orange City.
Investigators suspect the fire was started by a malfunction in a radiant heat system. The blaze was difficult to battle because it was burning in the house attic. The residents weren’t home. The three firefighters were taken to Orange City Hospital for treatment and then released.
Jim Field speaks with Army Air Corp Veteran Jim Tyler of Atlantic about his time in the service as part of our Freedom Fridays series.

CEDAR FALLS, Iowa (AP) – Brandon Snyder scored two touchdowns and passed for another and No. 1 Inwood West Lyon routed No. 2 Brooklyn BGM 49-7 Thursday to win the Class A state championship. West Lyon (14-0) dominated on the ground, outrushing BGM 329-48. Snyder ran for 181 yards on just seven carries and completed 4 of 5 passes for another 110 yards.
BGM (13-1), which had been averaging a class-best 53.9 points, was held without an offensive touchdown. The Bears played most of the game without star running back Jack Kline, who came in with 1,811 yards rushing and 49 TDs. After returning an interception 52 yards for the game’s first touchdown, Kline sprained an ankle making a tackle and did not return.

A head-on crash Thursday night in Harrison County has claimed the life of a Dunlap man. The Iowa State Patrol says 75-year old Rex Rains, of Dunlap, was wearing his seat belt but died from injuries he suffered, at the scene of the crash on Highway 30, about two and one-half miles southwest of Woodbine. Officials say Rains’ 2003 Dodge Neon was traveling west on Highway 30 at around 9:40-p.m., when the car left to the center of the 100-percent ice and snow covered road and into the path of an eastbound 2014 Mack semi, driven by 47-year old Scott Grandstaff, of Omaha. The truck was registered to Farner Bocken, out of Carroll.
After the car and semi collided head-on, both vehicles came to rest in the south ditch of Highway 30. The accident remains under investigation by the Iowa State Patrol and Harrison County Sheriff’s Office.
