Nathaniel Williams, 67, was pulled from his burning home on Locust Street by firefighters on Monday night and taken to Rhode Island Hospital for treatment.
When firefighters arrived, they found the first floor fully engulfed in flames, and neighbors believed that the resident, Williams, was still inside the house.
Firefighters conducted "an aggressive search" and found Williams near a side entrance before transporting him to the hospital, where he later died.
The cause and origin of the fire remains under investigation, and a cause and manner of death will be determined by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner.
