Suffolk County Police Homicide Squad and Arson Section detectives are investigating after a person as killed in a house fire this morning in Manorville.
Police and firefighters responded to 434 Village Circle North at approximately 6:35 a.m. after a 911 caller reported a fire at the location. After the fire was extinguished, a person was found deceased in the home.
The identity of the victim will be determined by an autopsy performed by personnel from the Office of the Suffolk County Medical Examiner. The victim was alone inside the residence at the time of the fire and no one else was injured.
