4 people found dead following fire at southeastern Minnesota home

Four people were found dead inside a southeastern Minnesota home after a fire broke out on Sunday morning, according to fire investigators.

When several agencies responded to the single-family home in Grand Meadow — about 20 miles east of Austin, Minn. — smoke was coming from the home.

Investigators are working to figure out how the fire started, and the names of the four victims have not yet been released.

The Mower County Sheriff’s Office acknowledged the impact of the tragedy on the families involved and the Grand Meadow community, asking the public to respect their privacy.

Officials say their next update is expected to come on Monday afternoon.
