Man Killed in Camden County, NJ, House Fire
One man is dead following a house fire in Camden County Wednesday afternoon.

WPVI-TV reports the structure was a house that was broken up into four apartments.
Richard Macko, who lives across the street, told 6ABC, "The fire was coming out of the window. The police were at the front door trying to get it open. They weren't able to gain entry."
Authorities say their investigation is active and ongoing. As a result, the identity of the man has not yet been released.
