KANSAS CITY (AP) — Authorities say a woman who used oxygen to help her breath and a man who is believed to be her brother have been killed in a Kansas City house fire.
The blaze broke out around 4:45 a.m. Monday.
Kansas City Deputy Fire Chief Jimmy Walker says that when crews entered the home, they found a man dead. Crews then found a woman's body in the room with the bulk of the fire damage.
Walker said the victims are believed to be a brother and sister in their 60s. The woman was on oxygen at the time of the fire.
The cause of the fire hasn't been determined.
