FORT WAYNE, Ind.
A house fire early Saturday killed two children and badly injured two others, firefighters said.
Seven children between the ages of 7 and 13 were inside the home when the fire began in the kitchen before 2 a.m. Saturday, Fire Battalion Chief Jerome Gaines said.
One of the older children awoke to the smell of smoke and the sound of a fire alarm and rushed three children from the house, Gaines said.
Firefighters found four children inside the home. Fire, police and medical personnel performed emergency medical treatment, but one child died at the scene. The three others were taken to the hospital, where one of them later died.
Allen County Coroner Jon Brandenberger identified the two who died as 12-year-old as Keiara Sanders and 7-year-old Deonesti Luckett. Both died of asphyxia due to smoke inhalation.
The two other hospitalized children were in critical condition Saturday, WANE-TV reported.
Gaines said no adults were home at the time the fire started.
Fort Wayne Fire Chief Pete Kelly said the mother of at least one of the children had been home earlier in the evening but left around midnight.
Kelly said the fire was ruled accidental, having started with unattended food or cooking oil on a stove.
