A cottage in Prince Edward Island tragically caught fire over the weekend, resulting in the death of one hockey player and severely injuring three others.
A weekend of fun turned tragic when the cottage they were staying at caught on fire. Noah Latimer of the Cole Harbour Colts in the Nova Scotia Junior Hockey League sadly passed away, while three others suffered major injuries.
"Three people who escaped the fire were injured, one with serious injuries. Once the fire was extinguished by the fire departments, human remains of one person were discovered inside.
The scene was held by the RCMP and the investigation is ongoing."
