According to the Broome County Sheriff's Office, smoke was seen coming from Clark's residence at 127 Adams Drive just before 7 p.m. June 24.

The fire was reported by neighbors who called 911. Officials say three sheriff's deputies arrived at the house within two minutes.

The deputies were advised someone might be inside, so they forced their way into the home. They were turned back by thick smoke and extreme heat.

A short time later, firefighters arrived and found Clark in a bedroom.

Fire investigators say no one else was in the house at the time.
