Tragic fire that killed seven deemed not suspicious: Alberta RCMP
CHESTERMERE, AB – Alberta RCMP say a fire that killed seven members of the same family earlier this month is not considered suspicious.
Investigators in Chestermere say it’s likely there will be no other updates on the tragic residential fire that happened on July 2.
A local imam has said a man, his wife and children from Ontario were staying with his brother and his brother’s wife and children at the house when the fire erupted in the early hours of the morning.
Imam Syed Soharwardy, with the Islamic Supreme Council of Canada, says a funeral held last week for the three adults and four children was attended by about 1,000 people.
