MAN DIES IN TRAILER FIRE

Friday, January 11th, 2008 -- 12:12 PM

A man working with another person to tear down a trailer house today was killed when he became trapped when it collapsed and then burned.

The Chippewa County Sheriff's Office says the 24-year-old resident of Cadott died at the scene in the town of Arthur.

After the man became trapped, the other person went to a nearby residence to call for help, but debris apparently fell into a fire that was burning nearby and the trailer caught fire.

Firefighters arrived about 6 p.m., and the victim later was removed from the debris and pronounced dead.

The victim's name was not immediately released.
