Fire Investigation Unfinished

It appears reports that an investigation into a fatal fire in Fort Frances has concluded may have been premature.

An OPP release issued yesterday indicated the Fire's Marshall's office had finished its work, ruling last Wednesday evening's blaze at the Lakeview Trailer Court as not being suspicious in nature.

But when asked for an exact cause, a spokesperson with the O.F.M. told CFOB News those details could not be released at this time because the investigation is still ongoing.

64-year-old Aldon Morphet died in the fire as the result of smoke inhalation.
