Smoke inhalation is the cause of death in a Noel shed fire.
The Noel Fire Department responded to a fire Sunday, January 29, in a shed behind a residence near Kings Highway and Railroad Streets. As the fire was being put out, a body was found inside the building. The man was identified as 32-year-old Vicente Hernandez of Noel.
The autopsy performed late last week showed the cause of death to be smoke inhalation. No foul play is suspected.
