According to a news release by the Arlington Fire Department, a fire that occurred on Sunday night in a residential area on Shorewood Drive resulted in the deaths of two women and a dog. The fire was caused by a recreational fire that had been left unattended outside the home. When firefighters arrived at the scene, they found a shed that had been converted into a living space by the two women and dog ablaze. Unfortunately, the 67-year-old and 30-year-old women, as well as their dog, were already dead when rescue workers arrived. The Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office has not released the names of the deceased.
