Around 2:20 a.m. on Thursday, a 911 call came in to the Hambden Township Fire Department. It was because a house on Taylor Wells Road was on fire.
When the fire department arrived they saw thick smoke bellowing from the windows and the roof of the house where a family of four lived.The boy’s mother and young sister Khole Sharpe were not. They died in the smoke-filled house.“According to the father, the little bit we talked to him, he was trying to get her out, but the smoke got too heavy so he was unable to get the mother out or the daughter.”“Horrible. Just horrible. Young kid, the mother’s young. I’m 75, so if I go, fine.
Chief Hildenbrand said there were no working smoke detectors in the house and the cause is under investigation.
