Fatal residential fire claims the life of a 16-year-old boy
MOUNT UPTON – An early morning residential fire claimed the life of a young 16-year-old boy on Wednesday, March 1, at approximately 1:15 a.m.
The Chenango County 911 Center received a report of a structure fire located at 457 State Highway 8 in Mt. Upton.
Deputies responded within minutes of the 911 call, and found the residence to be completely engulfed in flames. Deputies determined that there was a 16-year-old youth who was unable to escape the fire. While still under investigation, the cause of the fire appears to be from a wood stove, which was the main heating source to the residence.
The Chenango County Sheriff's Office was assisted by members of the Chenango County Bureau of Fire Investigation Team. The New York State Police also assisted with scene security. Crews from Mt. Upton, Sidney, Bainbridge, Guilford, South New Berlin and Cooperstown Medical Transport responded to the scene.
A spokesperson for the American Red Cross said the organization is aiding the family in the immediate aftermath of the fire.
The Chenango County Sheriff’s Department has not released the name of the deceased youth as of press time on Thursday, March, 2.
