Two bodies were found inside a singlewide mobile home after firefighters extinguished flames at the residence on Friday.
Four Wayne County fire departments responded to a 9:04am 911 call reporting the fire at 1717-A US Highway 70 West of Goldsboro. After extinguishing the fire, crews located the bodies of two people.
