London Police say the cause of Tuesday’s fire in a home east of downtown is still unknown, but they do know the name of the lone deceased in the blaze.

85-year-old Elizabeth Sloan was identified by police late Thursday afternoon.

When fire crews were called to 80 Sterling Street at around 12:30pm on Tuesday, they found the woman unconscious.

She was transported to hospital by EMS where she later died.
