No one hurt in blaze at resort in northern Illinois
UTICA, Ill. (AP) — Firefighters are battling a blaze at a resort near Starved Rock State Park in northern Illinois.
Utica Fire Chief Ben Brown says the fire alarm sounded at Grizzly Jack's Grand Bear Resort at 5:30 a.m. Tuesday.
No injuries have been reported.
LaSalle County sheriff's officials say the fire is in the resort's main lodge and nearby pool.
Aerial footage of the fire shows a large plume of white smoke coming from the resort in Utica, about 90 miles (150 kilometers) southwest of Chicago.
Utica's fire command has requested salt trucks because of ice at the scene, where the temperature is hovering around minus 11 degrees.
