Twin brothers found dead in burned home near Duluth

Authorities say twin brothers were found dead in a burned home outside Duluth on Saturday.

The bodies of Terry and Jerry Rousse were discovered in their home in Canosia Township, about 10 miles northwest of Duluth, after someone conducting a welfare check on the 68-year-old brothers called authorities, according to the St. Louis County Sheriff's Office.

The cause of their deaths has not been determined.

Authorities said there had been a fire inside the home in recent days that apparently burned out on its own, but not before causing considerable heat and smoke damage.
