Alexandria Fire Victim Identified As 19-Year-Old

ALEXANDRIA, Minn. (AP) — Officials have identified the teenager killed in a house fire in Alexandria, the third fire fatality in the city this month.

The Midwest Medical Examiner's Office says 19-year-old Shandiin Goodbird died when a fire broke out in a multiple-dwelling residence Jan. 15. Officials say the building was on fire when officers and deputies arrived.

The fatality follows the deaths of two people in a mobile home fire on Jan. 5. The city had not had a fire fatality in 15 years until the three deaths this month.
