BROWNSVILLE, Pa. – The man killed in a fire at an apartment building in Fayette County early Sunday morning has now been identified. He is 34 year old Vernon Pratt Sr. The chief of the South Brownsville Fire Department says the blaze broke out in the man’s top floor apartment on Second Street. All of the other tenants managed to get out safely. The Red Cross is helping about 10 people. Brownsville Fire Chief Ron Barry said it was a tough fire to get under control because of the heavy smoke, heats and flames. “Very, very difficult fire. Very stubborn fire. And again, the layout of the building and the age of the building. There were a lot of spaces where the fire had a good head start before we got there,” Barry said. The cause of the fire has not yet been determined. (Photo: WPXI)
