BREAKING UPDATE: Officials have identified the 12 people who were killed in a fast-moving fire in Philadelphia's Fairmount neighborhood last week:
The fire started in an apartment that occupied the second and third floors of a three-story row home on the 800 block of North 23rd Street around 6:30 a.m. on January 5.
"The only survivor of this was a 5-year-old child and the 5-year-old child, as you've seen reported, certainly said things," Thiel said."The way the investigation proceeded, was an attempt to disprove the hypothesis that the way the lighter contacted the tree was in the hands of the 5-year-old child. We could not find anything to disprove that hypothesis. That does not prove it. Because we're talking about a 5-year-old child.
The 5-year-old boy was one of 14 people who were inside the home at the time of the fire. Only the 5-year-old, who was found on the second floor where the fire started, and another person who escaped out of the window, survived. Another occupant who was rescued by firefighters later died. While at least 26 people lived inside the property, Jeremiah said the leasing agreement was for 20 people in the two units.
