MILLINGTON, Tenn. — A man is dead Friday after a trailer caught fire in Millington, according to the Millington Fire Department.
The Millington Fire Department responded to the blaze around 11:45 a.m. at the 7700 block of Raleigh-Millington Road, the Shady Oaks mobile home park.
Millington Public Safety Director Gary Graves confirmed a 61-year-old man was found dead inside the trailer. The man had limited mobility which harmed his ability to escape, Graves said.
Fire investigators said the cause of the fire, which had the trailer fully engulfed in flames and threatened nearby homes, was accidental, and had no criminal intent.
