(AP) -- Four DeKalb County Fire Rescue department officers are on paid administrative leave while officials investigate a fatal fire in Dunwoody.
County public safety director William Miller released a statement Monday saying the internal investigation of the emergency response to the Sunday fire is standard practice.
The county 911 center got a call at 1:03 a.m. Sunday but the call disconnected while the dispatcher was taking down information. The dispatcher tried to call back several times.
Emergency personnel were immediately dispatched but found no signs of fire upon arrival. Around 6:40 a.m., the 911 center got a report of a house fire in the same area.
Firefighters found a house fully engulfed in flames. After the fire was put out, they found a body.
