BALTIMORE - A 62-year-old woman was found dead after a fire to a house in Annapolis over the weekend.

Firefighters said Marianne Forrest, the homeowner, died inside the home on Blackwalnut Drive early Saturday.

The fire to the two-story single-family home happened around 2 a.m. After an extensive search of the home, firefighters found Forrest dead inside the home.

A neighboring home sustained fire damage as well, and all of the residents made it out safely.

The cause of the fire is under investigation, but investigators believe there is about $500,000 in damages.
