hc-sheriff-2

Cottage Grove, Tenn.–A Cottage Grove woman died in a fire which destroyed the home in which she was living overnight Friday.

The Henry County Sheriff’s Office and Cottage Grove Volunteer Fire Department was called to 7135 Main Street at 12:25 a.m. on a report of a structure fire in Cottage Grove.

According to Investigator Gary Vandiver, Linda Golden, age 58, was found deceased following the fire and the death is being investigated by the Sheriff’s Office and special agents with the TBI.

Vandiver said the victim’s body was found at 6 a.m. in the remains of the fire. The fire destroyed the home.

He said no foul play is suspected. He said investigators also have “no reason to believe that the fire and unfortunate death are related in any way” to the recent set fires in the Mansfield and Springville area.

Vandiver said investigators had been at the scene last night and most of the day Saturday.
