PENSACOLA, Fla. (WALA) - An Army veteran in his 70s, who used a wheelchair and lived alone, died Thursday morning when his Pensacola apartment caught fire.

Eloise Nelson said the victim was Leo Lambert. She had lived next door to him for more than a year. She said when she looked out her door Thanksgiving morning, emergency responders were everywhere.

“I told the fireman that there was a man in the apartment. That’s when they broke down the door and pulled him out. They tried to perform CPR on him for a while," said Nelson.
