Edgewater fire victim identified

EDGEWATER -- The man found dead inside a Cory Drive home home just south of Edgewater that caught fire Thursday has been identified as 61-year-old Michael McCool, Volusia County Sheriff's spokesman Brandon Haught reporte this afternoon.

The Volusia County Medical Examiner's Office confirmed the identity during an autopsy this morning.

State Fire Marshal Detective Kyle Barron said the cause of the fire was ruled "accidental electrical" and did not involve a space heater.
