All of the occupants of 536 Sterling St. were able to evacuate and contact Kingsford Public Safety about 5:17 p.m. Sunday, KPSD Director Brandon Rutter said in a news release.

While crews were able to clear the site by 7:07 p.m., they were called back at 1:15 a.m. Monday after officers patrolling the area noticed a small fire had rekindled in the attic area. It was brought under control and KPSD left at 2:37 a.m., according to the news release.

No other details were released, including how many people or pets were in the home when the blaze broke out. No official was available Monday who could comment further on the fire.

No information was given on the damage done to the house. The structure later in the day had a badly charred porch but the interior could not be seen.
