SPRINGFIELD — The Clark County Coroner has officially identified the victim of the fire on Dover Road last month as 68-year-old Andrew Asebrook.
Officials suspected after the fire that the victim could’ve been the homeowner, but couldn’t say definitely.

The fire started around 2 a.m. Aug. 30. When crews arrived, the house was already 50 percent involved.
Officials said at the time that a possible hoarding situation in the home made rescue efforts difficult — furniture and other items blocked the door.
