MUSKEGON HEIGHTS, Mich. (AP) - Authorities in western Michigan say a fire apparently started in the kitchen of a rental home, killing a young woman.

The Muskegon Chronicle (https://bit.ly/1BuBiMc ) says that Muskegon Heights firefighters responded to the blaze about 7 a.m. and found a woman in her 20s unresponsive in the living room.

Fire Chief Chris Dean says the fire doesn’t appear to be suspicious. He says the victim’s name is being withheld until after family members are notified.



The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
