Two People Dead, Six Displaced In Everett House Fire

Firefighters say two women died in a house fire in Everett.

Everett Fire Chief Anthony Carli says that firefighters were called to the three-story home late Sunday and found the two women on the second floor.

He says their identities are not currently being released publicly.

One firefighter suffered a minor knee injury.

The American Red Cross is helping six people who were displaced by the fire.

Carli says the home on Madison Avenue is likely a total loss.

The State Fire Marshal's office said the fire went up to 3 alarms and that adjoining properties had minor damages.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
