Authorities say four adults died in an early
morning fire at a trailer home this morning in Crawford County.
The Crawford County Sheriff`s Department is trying to positively
identify the victims.
Authorities received a call for help about 4 a.m. to the trailer
off Arkansas 60 between Van Buren and Alma in Crawford County.
Authorities don`t know what caused the fire, but believe the
blaze started in a bedroom. The victims apparently died of smoke
inhalation.
Authorities say there was a Memorial Day gathering at the house
Monday evening. A neighbor in a camper trailer behind the trailer
house woke up and discovered the fire and called another neighbor
for help, then ran to the trailer to help those inside, but the
trailer was engulfed in flames.
