Multiple agencies, including the Cass County Sheriff's Office, responded to the scene and located two people.
One of them, an adult female, was taken to the hospital — where she was later pronounced deceased.
The adult male victim was transported to a local hospital and treated for smoke inhalation. He is expected to recover.
The Cass County Fire Investigation Team is currently working with the Missouri State Fire Marshal and other agencies to determine what caused the fire.
Assisting agencies include the Central Cass and West Peculiar Fire Protection Districts — along with the Adrian, Harrisonville, Dolan West Dolan and Garden City Fire Departments.
