Osage City-KS Historic Building Burns



The fire was Sunday in a historic 2-story building that housed Mink Photography in downtown Osage City-KS.- located about 30 miles south of Topeka.


Firefighters made a good stop on the fire and managed to confine it to the Mink building- though at least 2 other businesses suffered smoke & water damage.

Video courtesy of WIBW-TV13 in Topeka shows citizens of Osage City removing items from threatened businesses. It was reported all items were later returned to the owners- a testament to small-town values.

More importantly- no one was injured because of the fire.
