CHURUBUSCO, Ind. (WOWO): A house fire in rural Allen County ends up turning into a death investigation.

A fire broke out near Churubusco at about noon Monday at a house at Wesley Chapel and McComb Roads. Allen County authorities are telling our partners in news at 21Alive that they found a man dead in the woods near the home, and are now investigating the man's death. It's unclear if he is the homeowner or what he died from. 

The house sat in a wooded area, and it took four fire departments to put the fire under control. A fire truck also had to move a car that was in the driveway, blocking access to the home.
