No one is hurt following a bus fire in South Haven Township Tuesday night. South Haven Area Emergency Services tells us the bus was a charter that had brought a musical group to South Haven for a holiday concert on Tuesday night. The fire started while the performers, the South Bend Chamber Singers, were inside Peace Lutheran Church on Blue Star Highway. The bus driver noticed the fire at the rear of the vehicle and tried to put it out with a fire extinguisher, but was unsuccessful. Firefighters had to put out the blaze. The South Bend Chamber Singers were presenting a concert sponsored by the South Haven Performance Series. Another bus from the charter service came to South Haven to return the group to South Bend.
