The Fayette County Coroner on Sunday identified James Edward Shea and Wilbur Shea, 72, as the two brothers who died in a house fire Friday in German Township. Officials do not yet know the age of James Edward Shea.

The brothers lived together in the Seventh Street home that burned and started to collapse, Fayette County Coroner Dr. Phillip Reilly said.

The men inhaled smoke and fumes and suffered extensive thermal injuries, the coroner said.

Funeral arrangements are not yet determined, Reilly said.
