Staff reports

NORTH TONAWANDA - Fire officials have identified Reid Bracken as the man killed in Wednesday night's fire on Belling Place.

The blaze was first reported around 6:20 p.m. Wednesday by a passer-by who noticed flames coming from a three-apartment building at 1338 Belling Place.

Firefighters were able to get Bracken out of the burning structure and resusitative efforts were begun at the scene but he later died at a DeGraff Memorial Hospital.

Bracken was the sole resident in the apartment.

After a joint investigation by the City of North Tonawanda Fire and Police departments, it was determined the fire was accidental in nature and the use of a kitchen stove and/or electrical issue could not be ruled out as the cause.

Damage to the home was estimated at $40,000.
