Officials to provide update on Hamilton fire that killed four, including two kids | Globalnews.ca

Police have yet to confirm the victims’ identities, the relation between them or details about the other two people who survived.

Witnesses said neighbours rushed towards a burning Hamilton home with ladders as children inside screamed for help. Juliana Tavares, a family friend of the residents of the unit, said some of the people in the house were related and the kids were a brother and sister with “an amazing bond.” Investigator Mike Ross with Ontario’s Office of the Fire Marshal previously said there was no evidence of working smoke alarms in the house as of Friday afternoon.

Ross said that the preliminary investigation suggested the fire started and spread across the entire ground floor before migrating up the stairs and to the second floor where it caused some damage.
