State and county officials have teamed up to determine the cause of string of local fires that occurred across Bolivar County this week.

In the early morning hours on Wednesday, a fire was set inside an abandoned home in Gunnison, not once, but twice at least, according to Bolivar County Fire Investigator Dasel Moorhead.

A Gunnison area resident has been named as the victim in Wednesday night's wreck involving a small, white 1995 Chevrolet Blazer and a tractor on Bunge Road.

Emergency officials say one injury has been reported in Bolivar County, Miss., where high winds knocked down trees and power lines.
