The Harris County Fire Marshal's office is looking for the cause of deadly fire in Huffman.

Around 6:30am, a man going to work spotted smoke coming from a travel trailer. The man woke up neighbors and called the fire department. Fire crews arrived to find flames engulfing the trailer. One man died inside.

"They did not find anyone on the initial search, but on a secondary search they were able to remove some fire debris and they did find a victim," said Mitchell Westin with the Harris County Fire Marshal's Office. "The victim has not been identified yet."

Fire investigators say relatives came forward and identified the victim, but authorities will wait for the Harris County Medical Examiner to make an official identification.
