Law enforcement has made an arrest in the death of a Minnesota man whose body was found in a burned-out trailer home in western Wisconsin.
A warrant had been issued for the arrest of Joseph P. Hadro, 44, who was charged with first-degree homicide in the death of Scott M. Zitzow, 63, of Stacy, Minn.
Hadro was arrested in Anoka County without incident, authorities in Wisconsin announced Monday afternoon.
Firefighters arrived at the trailer home in Osceola, Wis., late afternoon Wednesday and put out the blaze before discovering Zitzow's body, according to police and the Polk County Sheriff's Office.
"The circumstances that resulted in the death of the victim have been declared a homicide," read a joint statement from police and the Sheriff's Office, which did not elaborate on how Zitzow was killed.
Authorities said Hadro does not have a permanent address but has connections to Polk County and the Twin Cities east metro.
Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact the Sheriff's Office at 715-485-8300.
