A house fire north of Inglis claimed the life of a  29-year-old.

On Sunday at 12:45 in the morning RCMP received a report of a house fire 10 km north of the community.

Two males aged 74 and 43 had safely escaped the home but told emergency personnel that a 29-year-old man was unaccounted for and was believed to be in the garage which was fully engulfed in flames.

When the fire was completely put out, the body of the 29-year-old was found in the garage.

The fire and death appear to be non-criminal in nature.
