A fire in Moose Jaw last month that claimed two lives was found to be accidental, according to police. In a news release, Moose Jaw Police Service (MJPS) said investigators found the fire was not intentionally set. Emergency crews were called to a multi-unit dwelling on the 200 block of Athabasca Street around 1:30 a.m. on Feb. 23. After the fire was extinguished Moose Jaw police said they located the bodies of two people inside the building.
