Culiacán, Sin.- A woman and a child died during the night of Sunday, December 29th during a fire in a house located in the Bosques del Álamo subdivision, very close to Los Mezcales, north of Culiacán.

The woman was identified as Astrid 'N', 26 years old, and her son Dante 'N', 6 years old, who were inside the house at the time of the tragic event.

The fire was reported at around 6:05 p.m. to the 911 emergency service, where, so far, it has not been reported whether it was provoked or if it was an accident, since it was reported that it could have been a violent attack, although neighbors assured that no firearm detonations were heard and said that the fire occurred because of a Christmas pinito.

Minutes later, members of the Culiacan Fire Department arrived at the site, who extinguished the flames and Red Cross personnel confirmed that, unfortunately, both men no longer had vital signs.

Municipal police officers cordoned off the area and requested the presence of investigative and forensic personnel to carry out the corresponding procedures in order to confirm whether this was a violent incident or an accident.
