The Clark County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the woman killed in a Ridgefield house fire Aug. 8 as Stefany Cutler-Ffitch, 23.
The medical examiner said Monday that Cutler-Ffitch, of Ridgefield, died of smoke inhalation. Her death was ruled an accident.
Firefighters were dispatched shortly before 4 a.m. to a report of a fire at 29305 N.W. 41st Ave. They arrived to find a rapidly burning home, and a man who had jumped from a second-story window to escape lying on the ground. The man hurt his leg, officials said.
The man said someone else was inside the home. Fire officials said it appeared that Cutler-Ffitch ran back inside of the house to rescue dogs. Two dogs escaped the fire, but another died.
