Tragedy struck a Poteau family, when at 10:53 am on Saturday, July 8, 2018 the Poteau Fire Department was dispatched to a house fire on Sexton Street.
The fire department was quick to respond to the call as well as LeFlore County EMS.
The fire may have started in a bedroom, but the cause has yet to be determined.
Dannyell McClullah who was in the home at the time of the fire has died.
Our thoughts and prayer go out to family.
