Frat house fire displaces NIU students

DEKALB -- More than a dozen Northern Illinois University students have been displaced after their fraternity house was heavily damaged in a fire.

DeKalb Fire Chief Bruce Harrison says a fire broke out early Wednesday at the Omega Delta house. He says about 13 people were inside, including one who jumped out a second story window.

Harrison says one person was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

He says the NIU is working to find alternate housing for the fraternity's residents.
