Four-year-old boy fighting for life after house fire

A four-year-old boy is fighting for his life in an induced coma after being pulled from a house fire in Wigan.

But Ethan suffered severe burns to his body and is now in an induced coma in hospital. He suffered 86 per cent burns to his body, his auntie Jessica said on a Go Fund Me page, and has since undergone major surgery.The burns have been reduced slightly, but he is still bravely fighting for his life, the Liverpool Echo reports. Jessica said he is likely to be in a coma 'for some time'.

"We are all absolutely heartbroken, but my sister and her other children have lost absolutely everything. Please keep hoping and praying for him." Neighbours woke up to the sound of screams before emergency services descended on the scene of the raging fire at the semi-detached house in the early hours of Sunday. The Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service confirmed that the fire first broke out in the kitchen of the home, at around 2.30am, before then spreading up to the roof.
