Investigators now say an explosion and fire that claimed the lives of two people in Comox, B.C., on Friday afternoon was accidental, possibly caused by smoking cigarettes or portable heaters.
Two seniors, both with mobility challenges, died in a fire in the 1700-block of Ryan Road in Comox on a property backing onto Kelly Cade’s backyard.
"There’s a big ditch I had to cross to get over there and it was engulfed and the crackling of the old cedar home was going up pretty good," he said. "They were very emotional about it all, and like I say, there was nothing we could do," said Cade. "It was just too hot and no one could do anything. It was a very sad thing to watch."
"It did turn out to be the case. One person just outside the structure, one person inside, unfortunately both deceased." said Comox Fire Rescue Assistant Chief Rick Shelton.
