The title may be a bit misleading as it related to the death of a smoky mouse by smoke particles a long way from a bushfire. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-07-13/mystery-of-smoky-mouse-died-from-smoke-inhalation-canberra/12443006
There may be other examples; Like say the conductor who died by electrocution.

Would think there is more to that story than we know, especially as mice within the burnt areas survived.

Try Horrible Histories segment “stupid deaths”. https://horrible-histories.fandom.com/wiki/Stupid_Deaths
Perhaps some here.

eg.
General Pausanias. Starved to death while trapped by Spartans in the House of Pancakes.
