COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) — A house fire in eastern Council Bluffs killed a man and caused extensive damage to the two-story home. Firefighters found the man’s body inside the home after extinguishing the fire late Monday afternoon. The fire, which was reported at around 3:15-p.m., destroyed most of the interior of the home and blackened part of the outside, along with two neighboring homes. Investigators say no one else was home at the time of the fire.
According to public records, the home at 46 Northwood Drive is owned by Mark and Lori VanderWoude, a couple with three young children, but the family hadn’t been living there recently because the couple had separated. Officials didn’t immediately identify the male body found inside the home. And it wasn’t immediately clear how he died. An autopsy will be performed this week. The blaze remains under investigation.
