Two people, a 10-year-old boy and a 24-year-old woman, were pulled from a house fire on the English River First Nation and later died in hospital.
On Sunday night, Patuanak RCMP responded to a call about a house fire at a home on Mink Avenue on the English River First Nation. By the time emergency vehicles arrived on scene the home was fully engulfed, police said. Neighbours pulled the boy and the woman out of the home.
The RCMP said it will not be releasing the victims’ names or photos of the site at this time, and the families and the community are asking for their privacy.
Autopsies will be performed on the two people later this week in Saskatoon.
