No answers have come in the death of 16-year-old Maddie Clermont, who died Thursday after her bedroom caught fire in a northwest Tampa neighborhood.
What or who caused the fire at 5012 Grainary Ave. and how Clermont died remain undetermined, officials said.
An autopsy was performed, but results are pending and could take weeks to arrive, said Dick Bailey of the medical examiner's office.
Sheriff's investigators are waiting for those same results for their investigation, sheriff's spokeswoman Debbie Carter said.
"As of right now, it appears accidental," Carter said today.
