Baldwin fire death under investigation

State Fire Marshal investigators are still examining the circumstances surrounding a fire late Wednesday night in Baldwin where the body of a man was recovered.
Investigators responded to 116 Rosebud St. in Baldwin after fire crews were dispatched to the location in reference to a residential structure fire shortly before midnight Wednesday. Upon arrival, firefighters began suppression efforts on the manufactured home.
After entering the structure, crews located the body of 64-year-old Joseph Webber Jr. within the structure, which was severely damaged by the fire. The home had no working smoke alarms at the time of the fire.
The victim’s body was later released to the St. Mary Parish Coroner for autopsy after being examined by investigators. An autopsy is scheduled to be conducted later today.
