CHICAGO - A 58-year-old man was killed in a fire Thursday in Brainerd on the South Side.
The fire started about 7:40 p.m. on a back porch before spreading to an apartment in the 9200 block of South Loomis Street, Chicago fire officials said.
Anthony James Rogers was inside the apartment and was rushed to a local hospital but died shortly after arriving, according to officials and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.
