LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Authorities are trying to determine what sparked a house fire that killed a man.

The Lawrence Journal-World reports that the victim died at the scene of the blaze Thursday afternoon. His name was not immediately released.

Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical Division Chief Eve Tolefree says the home is not considered a crime scene.

The fatality was the second involving a Lawrence house fire in as many days. Police said a man died Wednesday during a blaze that police say followed a domestic dispute.

His name also hasn’t been released.
