Fire damages house

By The Emporia Gazette

Monday, February 6, 2012

A fire Saturday morning caused damage to the home of David and Ivy Magee at 1743 Rd. 175. About 10 a.m., residents reported smake coming from the attic of Magee’s home.

Fire crews Olpe and Neosho Rapids were deployed.

The Magees are renting the house after losing their house and two cars in the Reading tornado May 21, 2011.

What a bummer. This poor family has had some pretty bad luck.
