STOCKHOLM —
A Swedish man escaped from a blaze at a hunting cabin in central Sweden but froze to death as he fled, naked, on a snowmobile, a newspaper reported Monday.
The daily Aftonbladet said the man failed to save any of his clothes after the fire broke out Saturday night in the cabin at Klovsjo.
He was found dead on his snowmobile Sunday afternoon about 2 1/2 miles from the burned-out cabin, with no apparent injuries from the fire.
