A man has been found dead after a house fire in Tooting.

Firefighters were called to the blaze at the two-storey home in Ipswich Road just before 7pm.

They found the man, who has yet to be identified, dead in the front room of the first floor.

More than half of the first floor was destroyed by the flames, a London Fire Brigade spokeswoman said.

Two fire trucks and two fire investigation teams remain on the scene.
