BALTIMORE — Three children died following a house fire in the Rosemont neighborhood early Saturday morning in West Baltimore.
Firefighters transported five people — two adults and the three children — from the scene of a house fire in the 3000 block of Brighton Street to a hospital, the Baltimore City Fire Department said on social media at 4:34 a.m. Less than an hour later, at 5:29 a.m., the department said the three children had died from their injuries.
“I just saw the place burn up,” said Charles Pleasant from a porch across the street. “Around three in the morning I heard the woman hollering. The lady came out running, and she was saying ‘my babies, my babies, somebody get my babies.'”
