JOHNSTOWN, CAMBRIA COUNTY - One woman dies in a Cambria County fire.

The fire started around 3:00 Sunday afternoon at an apartment in Building 8 in Oakhurst Homes in Johnstown.  Fire fighters quickly got the fire under control, and called in the county coroner when they found the woman's body.

The coroner will perform an autopsy Monday, but the woman had some burns and appeared to have breathed in smoke.

The State Police Fire Marshal is investigating, but at this point officials think it is an accident.
