When firefighters arrived, they found flames and smoke coming from a window and door on the driveway side of the single-family manufactured home. Once firefighters entered the home and started working to extinguish the fire, they found a person dead inside.

An autopsy conducted on Tuesday determined that the cause of Kershaw's death was smoke inhalation and the manner of death was accidental.
