An Indiana man died earlier this week in a fire at his Shipshewana residence.
LaGrange County officials said 54-year-old Darin Smith was unable to escape the Monday morning blaze.
Around 7 a.m. Monday, officers investigated the fire, which had started on the lower level toward the back of the house. Two males were inside the home at the time and first responders were able to help one of them get out through a second-floor window.
Initial results from the autopsy determined Smith died from smoke inhalation.
Sheriff’s department officials said the fire appears to be accidental with no signs of foul play.
