A man whose body was found Thursday during a brush fire committed suicide, authorities said. Otto James Roundtree III, 24, “died of self-immolation,” which means he set himself on fire, Bulloch County Deputy Coroner Chuck Francis said. The actual cause of death was “smoke and soot inhalation,” he said.
