Tim Olk and Josh Boyajian were on-scene at Chicago’s 2-11 Alarm fire Friday at 2521 W.45th Place. The Chicago Tribune reports that the site of the fire is a crime scene.

A woman who had been stabbed several times was found by firefighters in a building that was set on fire on the Southwest Side Friday afternoon, police said.

Firefighters were called around 1:50 p.m. to the fire in the 2500 block of West 45th Place, according to Police News Affairs. A 2-11 alarm was called as the fire spread to several buildings, officials said. In one of the buildings, firefighters found the body of a woman, in her 50s, who had been stabbed several times, police said. She was dead on the scene, police said.

Authorities said it appeared the fire had been started in the building where the woman was found.

The woman was identified as Lucy Wrobel, 51, of the 2500 block of West 45th Place, according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office.

Her cause of death was pending an autopsy scheduled for later today.
