We now know the names of the man and three children killed in Sunday's house fire in the Bronx. NatDuddridgeTV has a look at how the community is rallying to help:
"I thought it was in my house," said Rivera."I was smelling the smoke, I jumped up, I started banging on everybody's door in my house -- There's 'smoke, smoke, smoke!' I went to my daughter's room, it wasn't her room. We looked out the window, it was black, it was smoke all over.""You could see through the window, the hands banging at the window, 'Hey Allah, hey Allah!'" neighbor Merlyn Persaud said.
Firefighters tried to rescue the trapped family members. Police said a 21-year-old woman and 41-year-old man were pulled out in critical condition and are still fighting for their lives in the hospital. "We're here to educate people, teach them about the dos and the don'ts," said Capt. Gerald Rocco."You can call the Red Cross -- 877-RED-CROSS. They will come to your house, see what you need and install what you need absolutely free.
There's still no word on what caused the fire or if there were fire alarms in the home. Now, a safety awareness campaign is being planned across the borough.
