A WOMAN IN HER 70’S DIED THIS MORNING, AFTER A FIRE BROKE OUT IN HER MONTEREY HOME. THE FIRE, WHICH WAS CALLED IN JUST BEFORE 7 A.M., WAS ON THE 900 BLOCK OF MUNRAS AVENUE. WHEN FIREFIGHTERS ARRIVED, THEY FOUND 1 UNIT OF THE 2-UNIT, SINGLE STORY, DWELLING IN FLAMES. THEY WERE ABLE TO CONTAIN THE BLAZE TO THE 1 UNIT, BUT THE INHABITANT WAS UNABLE TO ESCAPE.
THE CAUSE OF THIS FIRE IS UNDER INVESTIGATION.
