A KCK family is out in the cold after their house caught fire just after 5 a.m. Saturday morning in the 1700 block of North 43rd Street, authorities said. Officials said at one point firefighters had to pull out of the house because things were catching fire very quickly in the basement. Officials said they believe the fire started in the basement of the residence. Five adults and one child lived in the residence at the time of the fire. No injuries were reported. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
