A house fire early Tuesday morning claimed the lives of a mother and her daughter.
According to the Kentucky State Police, investigators were called to the fire at about 5:10 a.m. in Greenville in Muhlenberg County and discovered 30-year-old Kristina Y. Pyszka, and her 3-year-old daughter were in their residence on Wilson Street. Kristina Pyszka was pronounced dead at the scene by the Muhlenberg County Coroner’s Office and the child was transported to Owensboro Health Muhlenberg Community Hospital, but unfortunately, did not survive.
