One person is dead after a residential structure fire in the California neighborhood Sunday morning.
Louisville Division of Fire Captain Donovan Sims said crews responded to the 1600 block of West Kentucky Street just before 10 a.m. on a fire call.
Crews found heavy smoke in a 2-story residential structure and an occupant, who already evacuated, said there might have been someone else still inside.
Firefighters encountered a fire on the first floor and basement but initially couldn’t find anyone else.
After it took 30 firefighters 30 minutes to get the fire under control, a secondary search found a person was dead.
No one else was injured. Louisville Fire Department Arson is investigating the cause of the fire and the coroner’s office will determine the cause of death.
