Yakima police say a man's body was found early Thursday morning in the midst of two separate fires.
Around 3 a.m. the City of Yakima Fire Department got a call about a fire at a home along the 200 block of N. 36th Ave. At the time, a Yakima Police sergeant was driving in the area. He heard the call and responded. Inside the home, he found an unresponsive man in his 60's. The man was pronounced dead at the scene.
When firefighters arrived, they had battled two separate fires, one in the home and one in the detached garage.
Investigators are now working to figure out what started the fires and how the man died.
