Police can now confirm the name of the man who died following a house fire on Forest Hill Road, Henderson on 29 August.
He was Kenneth John McDougall, 72, of Auckland.
Our thoughts are with Kenneth’s loved ones during this incredibly difficult time.
The fire is not believed to be suspicious, and his death has been referred to the coroner.
ENDS.
