One person is dead after an early-morning fire in Morgan County. Gravois Fire Chief Ed Hancock says personnel were dispatched shortly after 3:00 Friday morning to 2900 Hwy-RA and, upon arrival, discovered the mobile home fully involved which had also started a small natural cover fire. The blaze was quickly brought under control and information was received that the home was, apparently, occupied at the time which started an extensive search for a possible victim.
