On April 22 at approximately 6:55 a.m., RCMP officers, fire services, and EHS responded to a report of a structure fire at a residence on Loch Lomond Rd. Upon arrival at the scene, the home was on fire and was partly destroyed.
After the fire was extinguished, the remains of an adult were located at the scene.
