When officers arrived, they found the woman — later identified as Myers — burned. She was transported to a hospital for treatment.
She died from her injuries at a hospital.
An investigation found that on the day of the fire, Myers left the Drury Inn at 4110 South St. around 2 a.m., nearly five and a half hours before the fire was reported.
