Two people were found dead in a residential fire in Carnduff Thursday.

The fire departments of Carnduff and the RM of Mount Pleasant were dispatched to a house fire in the town of Carnduff at 2 a.m. Upon arrival, firefighters encountered a fully involved house trailer on fire. The fire quickly spread to a neighbouring house trailer and vehicle. Due to the intense flames, firefighters could not make entry into the first home and had to use a defensive attack. Firefighters used two supply lines and four attack lines to contain the fire in the second home. Firefighters were able to get the second fire under control and stop the spread to other homes in the area.

After both fires were extinguished two bodies were discovered in the first home. Firefighters then secured the scene and turned the investigation over to the RCMP.
