BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — Bismarck police have concluded that a man found dead inside a burned storage unit killed himself by setting the fire.

An insurance investigator assessing the Oct. 28 fire found the body of 54-year-old Kelly Saude last Thursday. Police Sgt. Mark Buschena says an autopsy concluded Saude died from smoke inhalation.

Authorities say that based on the evidence, they have ruled the death a suicide.
