28 bodies recovered from Isle Verte fire


The Surete du Quebec has ended its recovery efforts following a deadly fire in Isle Verte, after finding the bodies of 28 victims.

17 of those recovered have been identified by the coroner, and efforts are being made to identify the remaining nine.

Four of the people missing from the night of the fire are still unaccounted for.

SQ officer Guy Lapointe said the cause of the fire is still unknown, and police have yet to rule out the possibility that the fire was deliberately set.

While police will no longer be at the scene, specialist chemists and electricians will be scouring the wrecked building to see if they can figure out what started the fire.

About 900 attended a church service this past Saturday to mourn the victims of the Jan. 23 fire at the Residence du Havre.
