A house fire in Belleville early Thursday morning has claimed the life of one person and left another seriously injured.
On February 12th, at approximately 5:30 a.m., Belleville Police responded to reports of a residential fire in the area of Queen Street and William Street. Belleville Fire and Hastings-Quinte Paramedics also attended the scene, where firefighters worked quickly to bring the blaze under control amid concerns that occupants remained inside the home.
Firefighters were able to remove one individual from the residence, while two others managed to escape on their own.
Two women, both 72 years old, were transported to hospital. One sustained serious injuries. The second suffered critical injuries and has since died as a result of those injuries.
A third individual was not physically injured.
Belleville Police are assisting the Ontario Fire Marshal’s Office as the investigation into the cause of the fire continues.
This tragic incident has deeply affected the community.
Our thoughts are with the family, friends, and loved ones of the individual who lost their life, as well as those recovering from this devastating event.
