MARQUETTE, MI-- One person was injured when a fire broke out in a Marquette residence Sunday morning.
Firefighters were called to 235 West Bluff Street around 7 a.m. and found a mattress in flames on the sidewalk. An occupant had apparently dragged the burning mattress out of a second-floor bedroom.
Firefighters searched the rest of the house for fire, but found none. They ventilated the building to get rid of residual smoke.
The resident was taken to UPHS Marquette for treatment of burns.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
