House Fire Kills Three In Enoch

coachfore.org

Law enforcement has confirmed that three people have been found dead inside a home that was destroyed by a fire late Monday night in Enoch.

The call came in just after 10 p.m. By the time fire crews reached the scene, the home was fully engulfed in flames. Authorities describe the victims as one male and two females. Identities have not been released.

An investigation into the cause of the fire is underway. Investigators did tell media that it was thought the fire began in the garage.

Many more questions remain as investigators sift through the ashes.

“They arrived, the fire was intense and they attempted to enter the home,” said Enoch City Manager Rob Dotson of the city’s crew. “A lot of dense smoke kept them from going into the building. The fire department arrived, they continued to, of course, put the fire out. And once they were able to go inside the home they were able to locate three deceased people: two females, one male.”

Officers from the State Fire Marshall’s Office were on the scene to continue the investigation.
