A structure fire this afternoon in Prince George has claimed the lives of two people…
Fire crews from three halls responded to the duplex fire just before 2:30 PM on the 1400 block of Strathcona Avenue, in the VLA area of the city.
First arriving crews were met with flames and a large amount of smoke coming from the front, sides and back of the home.
Fire crews utilized a coordinated fire attack to suppress and extinguish the fire quickly. During fire suppression, search crews found two people inside the structure who had succumbed to their injuries.
PGFRS, RCMP and the B.C. Coroner’s service remain on scene investigating the fire. The cause of the fire has not yet been determined.
