Seven adults and three children died after a fire tore through a northeastern Pennsylvania home on Friday.
An early morning fatal fire killed seven adults and three children in Nescopeck, Pennsylvania on Friday. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.NESCOPECK, Pa. — Fire tore quickly through a house in northeastern Pennsylvania early Friday morning, killing seven adults and three children and horrifying a volunteer firefighter who arrived to battle the blaze only to discover the victims were his own family, authorities said.
“The information I have is that the fire started and progressed very quickly, making it very difficult to get out,” he said. Baker said the address initially given for the call was a neighboring house. He realized it was his family members’ residence as the firetruck approached. He said his unit was the first on scene, and the house was already engulfed in flames.“There wasn’t nothing we could’ve done to get in there. We tried, but we couldn’t get in,” said Baker, 57, who’s been a firefighter for 40 years.
Swank said he wasn’t able to get information from them. A fence prevented him from getting to the back of the property.
