WINOOSKI, Vt. (WCAX) - Firefighters are still working to figure out what sparked a house fire in Winooski.

We do know a 40-year-old man is dead but we don’t yet know his name.

Crews responded to the home at the busy intersection of Mayo Road, West Canal and West Center streets just before 9 a.m. Sunday.

Firefighters say there was heavy smoke billowing from the second floor. They say the fire isn’t suspicious, but they don’t know how it was started.

Along with Winooski Fire, St. Michael’s, Colchester and even some Vermont Air National Guard crews responded to assist.
