Family unharmed in Kelowna house fire

A Kelowna, B.C., family escaped a Thursday afternoon house fire unharmed, though their garage will need some work.

At around 4:15 p.m.  Thursday, reports of a possible structure fire in the 400 block of Edith Gay Road streamed into the fire department.

Once firefighters arrived, they spotted smoke coming from the rear of the structure of the two-storey residential home, according to the fire department.
