Two people were able to escape from a house fire on North Drive Tuesday night.

According to the Hopkinsville Fire Department, firefighters responded to a home in the 600 block of North Drive around 8:45 p.m. and found an active kitchen fire inside the single-family apartment. They were able to quickly extinguish the blaze, keeping it from spreading to other parts of the structure.
