\u201cOns het seker gemaak alles is af voordat beurtkrag later sou begin, maar dit was nie genoeg nie.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
S\u00f3 vertel die hartseer ma van die driejarige seuntjie wat onlangs doodgebrand het. Volgens Simone Alexander het sy haar saamleef-man, Angelo May, Vrydagaand gevra om seker te maak alles is afgeskakel, omdat hulle vroeg wou inkruip. Beurtkrag sou inskop terwyl hulle in droomland sou wees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Met trane wat vrylik vloei verduidelik sy: \u201cOns het in die vroe\u00eb oggendure \u2013 net n\u00e1 04:00, toe die krag weer aangaan \u2013 wakkergeskrik met vlamme oral. Ek en Angelo het probeer om ons drie kinders eers veilig uit te kry, maar Jhon-Lee (3) het onder die bed weggekruip om aan die vlammehel te ontsnap.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alexander s\u00ea in die soektog na Jhon-Lee het hulle amper van die ander kinders vergeet. Die oudste kind, Caleb (5), kon egter slaag om sy jonger boetie (2) deur die venster te gooi en het toe self deur die venster na veiligheid gespring. \u201cTerwyl die vlamme buite beheer geraak het, het ons geroep, geskree en gesoek, maar moes later die aftog blaas omdat ons self later begin brand het,\u201d vertel sy. \u201cDaar was egter geen geluid van ons kind nie, en wat my verbaas, is dat hy nie eens na my of sy pa geroep het nie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tydens die brand het omstanders moedig probeer help om die vlamme te blus, maar Alexander se wendyhuis sowel as di\u00e9 soortgelyke huis van hul bure het tot op die grond afgebrand \u2013 met alles wat daarin was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Alexander het haar kind onder die bed verkool en sy vermoed hy moes reeds dood gewees het voordat die vlamme alles verswelg het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die erg getraumatiseerde ma s\u00ea sy en haar oudste het brandwonde opgedoen, maar is n\u00e1 behandeling ontslaan. Haar saamleefmaat is egter steeds in die hospitaal weens erge brandwonde.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die gesin, wat alles verloor het, gaan intussen by skoonfamilie tuis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Allister Lightburn, die wyksraadslid, s\u00ea dit is baie tragies en hy het die familie bemoedig. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lightburn het aan Weskus Nuus<\/i> ges\u00ea as die raadslid vir die gebied sal hy die familie bystaan met die begrafnis en vra dat die gemeenskap die familie met skenkings moet ondersteun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
