A woman has died after flames engulfed a house in Perth’s northern suburb of Balcatta on Saturday afternoon. Firefighters were called to the Sylvia Street address about 4.15pm after receiving triple-0 calls reporting flames and black smoke were billowing from the roof. The fire was quickly extinguished but two rooms inside were destroyed. Arson Squad investigators are conducting an examination of the scene and have deemed the fire as “non-suspicious”.
Department of Fire and Emergency Services Perth district officer Gareth Degg on Saturday confirmed the home was a State housing property and that the cause of the fire was unknown. WA Premier Roger Cook described the fatal house fire as a “very tragic event”. “This is a very tragic event. Our hearts go out to all impacted by this particular horrible fire,” he said on Sunday. “Any loss of life in such circumstances is confronting and people’s hearts will be breaking today.
