A fire broke out at an Ogden restaurant today at around 2 p.m. Inside the restaurant were regular Michael Freeman, manager Pedro Sanchez, his brother Miguel Sanchez, and Miguel’s two daughters. Deputy Fire Chief Greg Chamberlain says that the cause of the fire was most likely a grease fire in the kitchen. Pedro Sanchez, the manager of the restaurant, was in the kitchen when the fire broke out. He says “[I] tried to put it out with the extinguisher,” when that didn’t work he started yelling for people to get out.
Two of the people inside were Pedro’s two and four year old nieces, they were taken to the hospital for smoke inhalation. Pedro says they are doing fine. As for the restaurant the damage is extensive and repairing it will take a while but Pedro is hopeful they’ll come back, “I love having a restaurant. It’s my life. We will come back.”

Hey nice story. I was a little confused on the facts though because I thought from the press conference that the two girls were rescued from the apartment above the restaurant. They weren't actually in the restaurant. Just an observation. Great flow though.
Good story, it gave all the the info,without overloading, and had a great flow.
Kim...you did a great job on your paper. It was very easy to read and I really liked the simplicity of it. Good job!
