CALGARY - A woman has died in a Calgary apartment fire that rescue crews found was mysteriously out by the time they arrived.
During the lunch hour Monday fire crews were dispatched to a third-floor suite that had been blackened by a fire that also melted various items.
But the fire department says by the time they arrived the fire was completely out, the suite contained no smoke and only a small amount of residual heat remained.
Firefighters found the woman's body and she was declared dead at the scene.
The fire is not believed to be suspicious, but the fataltiy requires that the medical examiner and the arson unit investigate the cause.
Fire department officials say it's not clear when the fire actually happened as it wasn't reported by other residents in the building.
