KNOXVILLE – Fire authorities say a 19-year-old Knoxville man has died in a mobile home fire.
Knoxville Fire Department Capt. D.J. Corcoran identified the man as Mark A. Jarnigan. The Knoxville News Sentinel reports that he died Saturday at University of Tennessee Medical Center.
Jarnigan’s twin brother was able to get out of the mobile home but was taken to the medical center for treatment of what Corcoran described as mild smoke inhalation.
Firefighters found heavy smoke coming from the home when they arrived at the scene Saturday morning.
Jarnigan was found inside during a search by firefighters, who tried life-saving procedures.
