Firefighters say a man died in a fire in a portable toilet near the Baltimore Ravens' stadium.

News outlets report that Baltimore police say the Sunday fire in the parking lot of M&T Bank Stadium didn't appear to be criminal.

Baltimore Fire spokeswoman Blair Skinner says a security guard saw a man engulfed in flames running from the portable toilet. The man was dead by the time medics arrived, and three portable toilets were on fire.

"From what we were told, the security guard saw him running from the porta potty; his body was physically on fire," Baltimore Fire Department spokesperson Blair Adams said.

"Immediately, he collapsed on the floor.

"He was dead upon arrival [at the scene]."

The man was so badly burnt they have not yet been able to identify him.

It's unclear how long he had been in the toilet. The cause of the fire is still under investigation.

We're unclear what he was doing inside of the porta potty at this time, if he was walking by or whatever the case, but that will be part of the investigation,"

The stadium wasn't hosting public events that day.
