A woman in her 80s and her son, in his 60s, have died during a house fire at Woodridge on Sunday (16 June).
Police say emergency crews were called to the address on Cypress Street just after 6pm, where they discovered the house engulfed in flames.
“Despite efforts of all crews, two people who were inside the house at the time, a woman in her 80s and a man in his 60s, died at the scene,” a statement said.
Police and fire investigators were still on scene on Monday morning (17 June).
Woodridge MP Cameron Dick also made an appearance, laying flowers outside the property.
“This is a really devastating event,” he told reporters.
“I think it has shocked everyone in Woodridge and it has shocked everyone across Logan.
“I didn’t know the son very well but I knew his mum and I knew how kind she was.
“… she also had a great sense of humour [and was] a very energetic person.”
Police are appealing to anyone with information that could assist their investigations, to come forward.
