fire-graphicSOUTH SIOUX CITY, Neb. (AP) — Two South Sioux City residents escaped unharmed from a fire that destroyed their mobile home.

The fire was reported around 3 p.m. Thursday.

Fire Chief Toby English says the fire started when a cleaning product was spilled on the kitchen counter next to the stove, which was turned on. Heat from the stove ignited the cleaning product.

English says the residents were able to call 911 and leave the home without injury. He says the home was a total loss.

The American Red Cross is helping the residents find other living arrangements.
