PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — Fire officials are investigating what sparked the blaze that killed a couple in their Cedarbrook home Thursday night.
Firefighters were called around 11:30 p.m. to Dorset Street, near Mansfield Avenue, not far from the Finley Rec Center.
A 65-year-old man and a 73-year-old woman were pulled from the home and taken to local hospitals, where they later died. Officials say the victims each had severe smoke inhalation.
Investigators are combing through the building trying to figure out where the fire first started. At this point, they do not believe it was intentionally set.
