A little boy who died in a house fire in Spokane, Washington, was found huddled together with his beloved dog and teddy bear.

“They died together,” Spokane Fire Department Assistant Fire Chief Brian Schaeffer told the Spokesman.

According to Schaeffer, the house did not have a working smoke detector.

Neighbors told local reporters that the home was a rental property and that it had a strange layout.

“The way the house is configured in there, it was probably impossible to get to him,” a neighbor told the Spokesman.

The identity of the boy has yet to be revealed.
