An 80-year-old man died after a fire at his home in Cumberland County.
On Thursday, January 9th, Greenup Fire Protection was called to 523 County Road 2350 East in Casey after reports of a two-story farmhouse on fire, according to Greenup Fire Protection Chief Michael Carlen.
When firefighters arrived on the scene, about 90% of the house was engulfed in flames, and it looked like the fire had started on the northwest side near the kitchen, said Carlen.
The fire was under control within two hours of the department's arrival, according to fire officials.
Deputy Coroner Jennifer Phipps identified the man found dead at the scene as James Mullen of Casey.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation by the State Fire Marshal.
