Bridgeport fire victim identified
BRIDGEPORT — The woman who died in an early-morning fire in her Saunders Avenue home has been identified. Charlotte Keoshgerian, 62, apparently died of smoke inhalation in the fire that erupted at her home at 389 Saunders Ave. shortly before 5:30 a.m. today. Fire crews found heavy smoke billowing from the wood-frame structure and had to force their way into the dwelling, according to fire Capt. Luis Rivera, the department spokesman. The woman was found in the kitchen, although early indications are the fire may have been started in a bedroom. When found by firefighters, the woman was unresponsive, and she remained unresponsive when ambulance personnel tried to revive her. The woman was apparently the only person in the home, Rivera said.
