The badly-burned body of an unidentified male was discovered Friday night after a vacant house caught fire in Washington Township.
The fire at 133 Berlin-Cross-Keys Road was reported to authorities by a driving passerby shortly before 9:30 p.m. and was brought under control about half an hour later, though not before the trash-filled house suffered heavy damage.
The cause of the fire has not yet burned determined and an autopsy will take place Saturday afternoon. Authorities said that the house has been vacant for more than 10 years and become a favorite spot of squatters, who have drawn several police complaints.
The owner of the house reportedly lives in Florida.
