OLDHAM, SD – A fire inside a house is believed to have killed a man at Oldham. Kingsbury County Sheriff Kevin Scotting said 56-year-old Terry Bickett and his dog were found dead in the home Monday evening. Scotting says a fire began inside the house but ran out of oxygen and extinguished itself before it could engulf the structure. The sheriff said Bickett had grabbed a fire extinguisher and pulled the pin but never used it. Scotting said there is no sign of foul play and that the cause and time of the fire are unknown.
