Birthday Celebration Turns Deadly: House Fire Kills Two Children
The two girls were discovered unconscious on the ground by emergency personnel, their bodies badly charred. The girls, who were 6 and 8 years old, were declared dead at the scene despite attempts to revive them, according to authorities.
Detectives were informed by witnesses that the girls were playing with fire next to a couch in the hallway and that one of the girls was having a birthday party on the second floor of the house.
According to police, detectives who searched the building came to the conclusion that the fire started on the second level and spread to the third.
Detectives from the Newark Fire Department are members of the prosecutor's Crime Scene Investigations Bureau, which are investigating the cause and origin of the fire. There was no other information available at the moment.
