SPRINGHILL, N.S. — Two bodies were recovered from a rural home in northern Nova Scotia after a fire broke out in the basement Tuesday afternoon, the local fire chief says.
Firefighters were dispatched to Beaton’s Lane on the western outskirts of Springhill just before 4:30 p.m.
No details were released about the victims or what caused the fire, but the RCMP described the fire as suspicious.
Springhill fire Chief Stanley Hunter said it appears the home was recently purchased and was under renovation.
