Emporia Fire put out a small house fire that developed in central Emporia on Tuesday morning.
Firefighters were called to 926 Lawrence a bit after 8:30 am after light smoke was noticed coming from the northeast corner of the house. Emporia Fire Battalion Chief Eron Steinlage says the fire was near a camper parked on the north side of the house, but the vehicle was apparently not involved.
The fire apparently developed on the outside of the house and did not extend inside. The cause is under investigation. Everybody inside the house got out safely.
