The Office of the Fire Commissioner has completed their investigation into last week’s fatal fire in La Broquerie and says a cause cannot be determined.

The apartment building suddenly ignited late Thursday afternoon and, due to a large volume of flammable materials in one of the suites, the structure burned fast and hot. Fire crews were unable to rescue the suite’s tenant who died in the blaze.

Officials were unable to identify the source of the fire but have ruled the cause as “accidental”. The total damage is estimated at $300,000.
