As morning dawns over the fire site, the news comes that a body was discovered in one of the destroyed homes. Boise Fire Chief Dennis Doan confirmed the sad news to KTVB-TV about 2:30 this morning. In the end at least nine homes were destroyed, even more were damaged, and both firefighters and police officers were treated for smoke inhalation and minor injuries. Dozens of families fled their homes as the flames raged through a southeast Boise neighborhood late yesterday.
