HTN: Cause, Victim ID'd in Fatal Fire

Fire officials in the Town of Aurora say Tuesday's deadly trailer fire was probably fueled by oxygen tanks. Investigators say the oxygen caused the fire to spread quickly, which prevented the rescue of 63-year-old Larry Johnson. Authorities say they are looking at careless smoking as the cause. Johnson's 70-year-old roommate was able to escape the flames. A puppy also died in the trailer.
