A Logansport fire that killed six people, including four children, is being investigated as a possible criminal case, according to the Cass County sheriff.
The call for the fire came out around 1:50 a.m. in the 4300 block of Pottawatomie Road on the east side of the city.
Cass County Fire Lt. Steve Crispen says the sheriff’s department arrived on the scene first. They rescued two adults, a mother and an adult son, who are now at the hospital.
But there were still six people inside the two-story home. They climbed on the roof and broke windows to get inside, but the flames were just too big. The home was 80 percent involved with heavy fire at the time. Video from Mitchell Kirk with the Pharos-Tribune shows the flames.
