Flames and smoke were pouring out of windows in the house when firefighters arrived, he said. Firefighters extinguished the blaze in about 10 minutes.
The charred body of an unidentified male was found as firefighters sifted through the charred rubble, Wise said. The fire, he added, is being investigated as a suspicious blaze.
