A woman in her 70s has perished in a housefire in Co Fermanagh.

The tragedy happened last night in the Killynure Crescent area of Enniskillen.

An investigation is underway to determine the cause of the fire.

PSNI Detective Inspector Winters said: “At approximately 5.55pm police were notified of a fire in the property and attended along with colleagues from other emergency services.

“Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service (NIFRS) extinguished the fire but, sadly, a woman was pronounced dead at the scene.

“Our investigation is now underway to determine the cause of the fire. Anyone with information is asked to call 101, and quote reference number 1665 of 26/01/23.”

NIFRS area commander David Nichol has offered condolences to the dead woman’s family.

“The thoughts and sympathies of Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service are with the loved ones of a woman who has sadly died following a house fire in Enniskillen yesterday evening,” he said.
