MONROE COUNTY — One person is dead following a fire late Monday outside Bloomington in Monroe County.

Firefighters were called to the scene, on State Road 446 near Lake Monroe about 9 p.m Monday.

The coroner confirmed Tuesday that one person died in the fire, but identification of the victim and other information about the fire has not been released.
