PITTSBURGH (AP) — The county fire marshal says a natural gas clothes dryer likely caused the house fire that killed a 15-year-old Pittsburgh-area high school student last month. The Allegheny County fire marshal says Tuesday that there was too much fire and collapse damage to confirm the cause of the fire that killed Hannah Milbert. Hannah was a star soccer goalie at Avonworth High School. She helped her team reach the playoffs last fall, and she received the All-WPIAL award at the December banquet. Hannah's body was found about 10 p.m. Jan. 7 in the charred remains of her family's home. Firefighters were called about 6 p.m. and found the home engulfed in flames. Hannah was also a sophomore honors student and a Girl Scout.
