A man has died in hospital 10 days after suffering severe burns in a suspected drug lab fire at a house in Sydney’s northwest.
Neighbours noticed smoke coming from the home on Quarry Road at Ryde in the early hours of January 4, police said.
Emergency services found a 50-year-old man inside suffering “full thickness” burns to his arms and legs.
He was taken to Royal North Shore Hospital and placed in an induced
coma, while a woman who managed to escape the fire was admitted with
minor injuries.
The man died in hospital on Monday.
Police believe the fire was caused by an explosion in a clandestine drug lab.
A report will be prepared for the Coroner and investigations into the incident are continuing.
