State Fire Marshal deputies are continuing their investigation into the origin of a Tuesday evening house fire that tragically claimed the life of a 66-year-old Doyline woman.
Officials have not released the name of the victim.
Webster Parish Fire District 3 in Doyline responded to the fire in the 100 block of Miller Rd. at approximately 10:13 p.m. At this time, Fire Marshal deputies are trying to determine whether the residence was equipped with a working smoke alarm.
Louisiana State Fire Marshal, Chief Bryan J. Adams, urges all Louisiana residents to protect their homes with functioning smoke alarms.
“Smoke alarms save lives,” Adams said. “If individuals don’t have one or need assistance with installation, the state’s Operation Save-A-Life program offers free smoke alarms and installation services.”
