GREENE COUNTY, Tenn. — The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said authorities have taken a Greeneville couple into custody after a fire killed a child and seriously injured another.
Authorities were called to the 1400 block of Woolsey Road in Greeneville Wednesday evening after a camper caught fire around 7 p.m.
A witness told deputies the father, 38-year-old Robert Inbody, was seen leaving the area after the camper caught fire Wednesday night, according to the incident report from the Greene Co. Sheriff's Office.
Deputies were told a 3-year-old boy was still inside the burned camper and that a 3-year-old girl was being treated in an ambulance for severe burns.
The young boy was found dead inside the camper.
According to the report, extension cords running from a trailer powered a generator in a shed near the camper. Inside the shed, they found a moonshine still along with drums filled with what they believed to be corn mash.
Authorities were able to track down Inbody and take him into custody, saying their investigation revealed he had left the children unattended at the time the fire occurred.
The TBI said later Thursday night Inbody had left the scene in an attempt to avoid speaking with authorities about the incident. Further investigation revealed the mother, 39-year-old Devin Cullum, later withheld information about Inbody's whereabouts, according to the TBI.
Inbody is charged with two counts of aggravated child neglect and is being held in the Greene County Jail on a $150,000 bond. Cullum was charged with accessory after the fact to aggravated child neglect and is being held on a $100,000 bond.
The investigation into the cause of the fire remains ongoing.
