WILMINGTON, Del. (WPVI) -- A family member has identified the man who was killed in a fire that tore through a Wilmington block last night.

Iyonna Anderson tells Action News that her father, Antonio Shockley, was killed in the blaze along the 3900 block of North Market Street.

Firefighters were able to pull 52-year-old Shockley from the burning apartment building, but it was too late. He died at the hospital.

One other tenant escaped unharmed.

Investigators say the fire left about $400,000 in damage behind.

They are still working to determine a cause.
