Two people are dead following Wednesday’s early morning fire that destroyed a Galesburg home.

The Galesburg Fire Department confirms that two bodies have been found in the home.  Fire crews were called to the 400 block of Clark Street early Wednesday.  The blaze caused significant damage to the home, which fire officials said was difficult to fight due to wind, winter weather, and other factors.

The names of the victims — “an adult male and a child,” according to a statement — are not yet being released by officials, as police say an investigation is continuing.
