Nursing home fire kills 2 (Salt Lake Tribune)


ISHPEMING TOWNSHIP, Mich. - A fire early Monday at a nursing home in far northern Michigan forced dozens of elderly people into the snow and bitter cold, including many who were unable to walk and wearing only nightclothes. Two people died and at least 70 were injured. Firefighters broke windows to rescue residents in 14-degree weather, and beds were knocked askew in the rush to evacuate.
