Tempe authorities are still investigating a weekend apartment fire.
A 58-year-old woman was killed in the early-morning blaze at the Hidden Glen apartments, 818 W. 3rd St. A cause has not yet been determined, fire department spokesman Mike Reichling said.
The woman was found by her front door, apparently overcome as she fled the fire.
Her apartment did have a smoke detector, but Reichling said he did not know if it worked.
Authorities have yet to release the victim’s name.
