Babysitter and baby burnt to ashes

A babysitter and a baby was burnt to ashes in a house by fire today at Gerehu Stage 5 in the nation’s capital Port Moresby.

The babysitter was helplessly carrying the baby and was burnt to ashes.

Fire men arrived 20 minutes later but could not save them.

The fire destroyed everything.

According to eyewitnesses at the scene, they could not do anything as their fence was locked.

They tried their best and eventually broke the gate but was late as the fire was already engulfed the house.

They (neighbours) only managed to pull out a child from the burning house and rushed him to the St John Clinic at Gerehu stage 2.

This Reporter and the Fire services arrived at the same time at the scene only to witness the remains of the babysitter and the baby.

The cause of the fire is yet to be made known.
