    New Year's Day Deaths

    By Spontaneous  |  Posted January 2, 2009  
     

    A fire ripped through a Washington home Thursday morning, killing a 5-year-old girl, her parents and two others.  A critically injured 11-year-old boy was among four others hurt at the house, where Christmas lights hung from the front porch and crews removed charred debris in the afternoon, including a pink scooter and a toy truck.  An electrical failure between the basement and the first floor of the two-story home in the northeast part of the city is believed to have sparked the blaze, which broke out around 7 a.m. The dead were identified as Keith Nelson, 23; Tawanna Gant, 22; their 5-year-old daughter, Kaniya Gant; Joseph Wilson, 10; and Charles Smith, 72.  How tragic!  My prayers go out to the remaining family.  Take care--
