Tragedy in southwestern Indiana on New Years Eve.
Tuesday around 6:25 a.m, the Gibson County Sheriffs Department received a report of a residential fire on Indiana State Road 64 near the town of Francisco.
Upon arrival, law enforcement officers attempted to enter the burning home and discovered a deceased person.
They could go no further inside the residence due to intense heat and fire conditions.
