Ilkeston boy, 6, dies in bedside lamp house fire

Riley Jake Jackson died in hospital from"fire related burns and carbon monoxide toxicity"

Derby Coroners' Court was told the heat from a halogen bulb caused the lamp shade to catch fire on 26 October. Giving evidence to the inquest, Riley's mother, Cheryl Bradley, said she heard the fire alarm go off upstairs at about 22:30 and"couldn't describe the fear".Despite numerous attempts, she could not open the door and then ran in to the street and screamed"please help my son".Three fire crews were sent to the scene and two firefighters wearing breathing apparatus took Riley out of the bedroom.

My heart goes out to this little angel's parents & family.

Sympathies, but it doesn't take a genius to know that Halogen bulbs are dangerous. They are TOO HOT for domestic environments, as this tragedy illustrates.

That's bloody awful that poor boy, but usually halogen lamps have metal lampshades. People just don't realise the dangers of halogen lamps.

So tragic. My mother lost her life in a fire so can empathize with the sudden loss.

😔 Rest in peace little man ♥

Rest in peace in happiness to where you will oneday meet your family again.

Why couldn't they open the door ?

Poor lad heartbreaking for his family

Sorry 😐

Why.........?

So tragic! Poor boy & heartbreaking for his mom & family too x

Poor little lad.

Heartbreaking, RIP, May god favour you with another turn, somewhere better.

It's terribly sad and strange to see the juxtaposed reactions of people to this compared to a massive outpouring of grief for a fire where it seems that nobody has been hurt.

Tragedy

Poor sweet boy

Rip young man 🙏

😢

Sad.
