Fan or smoking could have contributed to deadly Fulton fire
On Friday, the Fulton Fire Department said a deadly July fire was accidental.
Chief Kevin Coffelt said a fan and the improper use of smoking materials could have been contributing factors for the flames.
On July 14, the fire broke out on one side of a duplex in the 900 block of Nichols Street.
Fire crews knocked down a door and found Stephen Rives unconscious. They removed him from the building but were unable to revive him.
A woman on the other side of the duplex was able to get out safely.
