TOWN OF BRADLEY, Wis. (AP) — Investigators are trying to determine what caused a trailer home fire that killed one person near Tomahawk in northern Wisconsin.

The Lincoln County Sheriff's Department says the fire was reported around 7:45 a.m. Sunday at the Clear Lake Condos in the Town of Bradley, north of Tomahawk.
