A late Tuesday night residential fire has claimed the life of an elderly Doyline woman, and investigators are still looking for clues to a cause.

District 3 Fire Chief David Cotty said the victim’s name has not been released while the state fire marshal continues to look into case.

Cotty said a neighbor reported the blaze around 10:15 p.m. Tuesday and by the time firefighters arrived, the structure was fully involved.

“It was a mobile home and by the time we got on scene the walls had totally collapsed,” Cotty said. “The fire marshal is investigating but it could be difficult to determine a cause due to the extent of the damage.”
