3 people found dead after structure fire in unincorporated community near Buckeye, Arizona
Posted
BUCKEYE, Ariz. (AP) — Authorities are investigating the deaths of three people whose bodies were found Wednesday after an early-morning structure fire at an unincorporated community near Buckeye.
Maricopa County Sheriff’s officials said the fire broke out around 4:30 a.m. in Arlington, which is 12 miles (19 kilometers) southwest of Buckeye.
News helicopters showed footage of a structure smoldering, with half of it burned down.
Sheriff’s officials didn’t immediately release any information about the victims’ identities or a possible cause of the fire.
Arizona Fire & Medical Authority crews and fire units from Buckeye and Avondale responded to the scene.
They reported finding a fully involved fire in a converted small residence in the backyard of a home.
After firefighters extinguished the flames at the detached structure, they found the three bodies.
Arlington is 43 miles (69 kilometers) west of Phoenix and had a population of about 150 as of 2020.
