N.H. Man Dies In House Fire

MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) -- New Hampshire firefighters say a 53-year-old man has died in a Manchester house fire.

Firefighters say the fire broke out about 5:30 a.m. Tuesday and that the man was at home with his wife at the time.

WMUR-TV reports firefighters say it appears that the man may have tried to put the fire out himself. They say there was significant damage done to the kitchen.

The state fire marshal's office is investigating.
