A Monroe fire official says a 76-year-old man has died of burns suffered when his clothes caught fire after he backed his wheelchair into an open flame propane heater during last week's cold snap. Family members put out the flames and called for help last Friday. The King County medical examiner's office says the man suffered burns to 40 percent of his body.
