LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A fire at a southern Indiana apartment building has turned into a homicide investigation.

Clarksville Police said fire crews were called about 8:15 a.m. Tuesday to the 400 block of Kensington Drive, which is off Eastern Boulevard near Lewis and Clark Parkway. When the fire was out, they found a woman's body on the floor.

The cause of the woman's death has not been released by police.

The building is a small apartment building with four to six units.
