Fire Horror Girl Released
April 27, 2008
A THREE year-old girl injured in a Midland house fire which killed two adults was released from hospital yesterday.
The youngster was staying at the property in Heyford Road, Braunstone, Leicester, when the blaze broke out in the early hours of Monday.
Deanne Harcourt, 22, and her step-grandfather Gordon Parker, 78, died in the inferno.
Two children, aged eight and four, remain seriously ill in hospital while Mr Parker’s 60 year-old wife has since been discharged.
Fire officers said the blaze started downstairs but have ruled out a gas or electrical fault as the cause.
