EDMONTON -- Mounties in Coronation, Alta. are investigating a fire at a home that left one woman dead.
RCMP say they responded to the fire at 11 a.m. Monday morning at two-storey home along Victoria Avenue.
Responders found an adult woman inside. She was taken to hospital but pronounced dead a short time after, according to police who are declining to release the woman's name.
A Coronation resident tells CTV News the woman was renting the residence and had pets, though it's not clear if they've survived.
