Twin Brothers Found Dead After House Fire In Canosia Township

ST.LOUIS COUNTY, Minn. (WCCO) — Two brothers were found dead Saturday after a house fire in Canosia Township Saturday.

The bodies of the Rousse brothers were found inside.

Authorities are investigating the cause of the fire and deaths of the two men.
