Excerpts from the ChicagoTribune.com:
Shortly before 4:30 p.m. Monday, the DuPage County Sheriff’s Office responded to a report of fire at a residence in the 1N200 block of Darling Street in an unincorporated area of the county. Firefighters from Carol Stream, Wheaton, and Addison responded and extinguished the fire. One person was found dead in the home, and the DuPage County Fire Investigation Task Force is investigating the cause of the blaze.
On Tuesday, the DuPage County coroner’s office declined to provide the identity of the victim, saying that the case was still under police investigation.

Without members and taxpayers subsidizing its revenue, Carol Stream FPD Firefighters Pension Fund lost $2,559,792 in 2016, according to a DuPage Policy Journal analysis of the latest data reported to the Illinois Department of Insurance Pension Division. The fund has $34,668,933 in total assets. If the funds annual losses were the same, it would run out of money in 14 years without these subsidies.
The fund lost $835,568 in investment income and other revenue in 2016. At the same time, it paid out $1,724,224 in expenses, according to the 2017 biennial report detailing the health of each of the states pension funds and retirement systems. The difference between the two shows the funds annual loss without subsidies.
Taxpayers added $1,172,985 to the funds revenue last year – an amount that has increased from $1,167,085 five years ago. Members contributed an additional $454,480 – $37,967 more than five years ago.
In all, subsidies amounted to $1,627,465 in 2016.
