MT. ZION, Ill. (WAND) – Investigators have identified the woman killed in a Wednesday Mt. Zion fire. 

The person who died was Jodie F. Bauer, 57, according to the Macon County Coroner. Mt. Zion firefighters found her when they first entered the home located at 700 Kirk Drive. She was pronounced dead at 11:23 a.m.

A cause is unknown. Crews say the Illinois State Fire Marshal is investigating, and added that results could take several weeks.
