The body of a 56-year-old man has been found Tuesday inside the perimeter of the Clover Fire, which broke out Monday in a small Northern California community.
The remains of Brian Stanley Henry were found in Shasta County, California. Authorities are still investigating the exact cause of death Wednesday.
"At this point, it doesn't look like a crime,” said Shasta County sheriff’s Lt. Janet Breshears, Redding.com reports. “At this point, there's no other reason to believe it was caused by anything other than the fire."
According to Associated Press, the Clover Fire broke out Monday afternoon and has since burned over 7,000 acres of land and destroyed 80 buildings.
Over 1,000 firefighters continue to fight the blaze, including 146 engines, seven helicopters, and five air tankers. It is at 40 percent containment as of Wednesday afternoon, and they do not expect full containment of the fire until Sunday.
At least four other people have been injured by the fire. Authorities hope for no more, but continue to search the areas where the fire has already been contained.
