A woman is dead after a suspicious fire in Halifax.

It was around 9:30 p.m., April 3 when crews responded to the blaze on Enid Avenue.

One resident was inside the apartment building. A second from another unit went in to help out.

Both women were taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries.

Wednesday, the 50-year-old who lived in the building passed away.

An autopsy will determine the cause of death.
