BURGLAR DIES STUCK IN CHIMNEY AFTER HOMEOWNER LIGHTS FIRE

In Huron, California, a burglar man who apparently got stuck in the chimney of a Huron home died Saturday after the homeowners lit a fire in the fireplace. After lighting a fire, the male homeowner heard screaming coming from somewhere inside the house. When the resident realized a person was in the chimney, he extinguished the fire. Firefighters had to smash the chimney to get the man out. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators believe he had attempted to break into the home sometime during the evening hours of Friday, Nov. 27. He had remained in the chimney all day Saturday. The man’s identity is being withheld pending notification of his family.
