The NRP is investigating the cause of a weekend blaze in St. Catharines.

Around 4:35 on Saturday morning, emergency crews were called to a house located near Haight Street and Disher Street, in regards to a fire.

Upon arrival, officers noticed that the lower level of the house, as well as the entrance, were on fire.

A pet parrot was found dead as a result of the flames.

Detectives are expected to be at the scene for several days as they investigate the cause of the flames.

Anyone with information on the case is asked to call investigators at 905-688-4111, ext. 1009964.
