Investigators have found a body in the rubble of a burned apartment house in West Hazleton.
Authorities say the body was discovered after they started demolishing the building Tuesday morning. They believe the body belongs to a man that has been missing since the fire started.
The fire on East Green Street, Saturday night, left 11 people homeless.
Police had been searching for 30 year old Grant Yamulla, who lived in the building. The coroner's office will do an autopsy on the body to determine the identity.
Police are calling the fire suspicious and are trying to determine if it was set intentionally.
They have confirmed the fire began in Yamulla's apartment.
