After a fire broke out in a two-story duplex in Brentwood, where hoarding circumstances made it difficult for firefighters to extinguish the flames, a man in Prince George S. County, Maryland, passed away early on Sunday morning.
Around 12:40 a.m., firefighters from the Prince George’s County Fire and EMS Department arrived at the 3400 block of Webster Street and discovered that the house’s first floor was on fire. The man was found dead inside the house when they entered. According to officials, his identity is being kept secret until after an autopsy.
Investigators found that firemen had difficulty accessing the duplex because it was crammed with a lot of stored objects. The man had been living alone in the house since the 1980s, according to the neighbors, who also described him as elderly and withdrawn.
incident officials are still looking into what started the incident, and no other casualties have been recorded.
