ST. CHARLES COUNTY, Mo. – A family escaped an overnight house fire early Thursday morning in St. Peters.
The fire took place at a house on Spencer Road. Officials say two adults, a dog, and some backyard chickens all made it out safely. The fire was reported by a neighbor who was walking by when they saw flames coming from the garage.
Firefighters said they had a hard time getting the fire out because of the strong winds Thursday morning.
