Braydon Blake Bloomington, Ind Incident: Braydon Blake Taken Into Custody After Bloomington Residential Blaze That Claimed Two Lives
Authorities are looking into a deadly house blaze in Bloomington that resulted in the deaths of two individuals and left one person in police detention early on Sunday morning.
As reported by the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO), deputies, along with members of the Monroe County Fire Protection District, were summoned to the 3800 block of East Anderson Road around 2:39 a.m. after receiving alerts about a fire in a residential building.
When they arrived, first responders found that a vehicle had crashed into an attached garage that was engulfed in flames.
One person escaped from the home but sustained critical burn injuries.
Another individual present at the scene provided initial information to the authorities.
Both individuals were taken to a nearby hospital and subsequently airlifted or transferred to a facility in Indianapolis for specialized burn care.
While searching the residence, responders found two more occupants inside the building.
As emergency teams managed the situation, law enforcement began to seek out an individual suspected of causing the fire.
With the help of the Bloomington Police Department and the Indiana State Police, a person of interest named Braydon Blake was discovered about an hour later in a wooded section of the property.
Blake had also sustained burn injuries and was taken to a local hospital before being transported to Indianapolis for additional medical care.
The MCSO confirmed that two victims eventually succumbed to their injuries.
A source shared with Channel2 NOW that her friend lost her grandmother, and that the caretaker of the grandmother also lost her disabled child in this tragic event.
The Monroe County Coroner’s Office has yet to disclose the identities of the deceased individuals as they are waiting to notify next of kin.
