KISSIMMEE, Fla. — One person was found dead in a house fire in Kissimmee Tuesday evening, according to Osceola County Fire Rescue.
The fire broke out at about 4 p.m. at a home along Carlisle Court, firefighters said.
Ramon Lamouth lives a few houses away.
“A man was screaming, ‘Please get my mother out. Please get my mother out,’” he said.
Lamouth said neighbors saw a woman on the floor of the garage when the house was on fire. Neighbors tried to help her get out, but the flames were too strong, he said.

The State Fire Marshal’s Office is investigating the cause of the blaze.
The victim's name has not been released.
