Crews from nearby departments, including from multiple New Hampshire communities, helped battle the flames.The body of the victim was found inside the gutted Days Inn around 2:15 p.m. Thursday, according to the Maine fire marshal's office. Their identity has not yet been confirmed. Officials said the body was found in an area of the building with the worst damage and the biggest burn.Kittery Fire Chief David O'Brien said his firefighters tried to get to that area during the first few minutes of the fire, but it was too dangerous. "It is a firefighter's nightmare with individual rooms and hallways," the fire chief said. "Trust me when I say that I was extremely hesitant to send my firefighters into that building."The fire marshal's office said Thursday afternoon that they believe everyone is accounted for. Two people, including a firefighter, were treated for injuries Wednesday, according to the chief. >> Raw videos: Fire at Days Inn causes thick smoke plume | Flames tearing through hotel | Officials give update on Kittery, Maine, hotel fire | Kittery Fire Chief gives additional updates on hotel fire | Fire Marshal says 1 dead after massive Kittery, Maine, hotel fireThe fire chief said some hotel records might not have been fully up to date, which made it difficult to determine if everyone made it out.
