HOME SHOWING CHIMNEY |
Law
enforcement authorities in California report that a suspected burglar who
became stuck in the chimney of a house in Central California was killed after
the owner of the house in the rural town of Huron ignorantly put up a fire in
the fireplace.
The owner of the house called in the
authorities after he heard someone scream after lighting a fire in his
fireplace on Saturday afternoon. He said when he found out there was someone
stuck in the chimney he put out the fire.
Mr.
Tony Botti Fresno, the County Sheriff's spokesman said an autopsy obtained on
Sunday showed that the suspect, Cody Caldwell 19, died as a result of smoke
inhalation and burns.
Officer Lieutenant Brandon Pursell stated that Caldwell
was responsive when fire-fighters smashed the chimney to get to him but he died
when they reached him
