ARVADA, Colo.—One man is dead and his wife has been injured in an overnight house fire in the Denver suburb of Arvada.
The blaze was reported at about midnight Thursday in the 14000 block of West 70th Drive. Firefighters found the home engulfed in flames.

Her condition is unknown.
Fire crews found a man’s body after several hours. Arvada Police Department spokeswoman Susan Medina says the unstable nature of the home after the blaze forced crews to use extra caution.
No names have been released.
