MONROE, La. (AP) — Louisiana authorities say a 35-year-old north Louisiana man warned his mother and uncle about a fire, then ran back upstairs toward the blaze and died.
The State Fire Marshal’s Office said the Monroe man’s body was found in the second-floor bedroom where the fire apparently broke out about 12:30 a.m. Wednesday.
Spokeswoman Ashley Rodrigue says the Ouachita Parish coroner will officially identify the body and determine cause of death.
