On Saturday evening, a severe house fire broke out in Spalding County in Atlanta in the USA. The fire had fatal consequences for 11-year-old Katelynn Simonds.
She was in the house with her brother and two other people. But when the fire broke out, the 11-year-old should have run up to the second floor to get the dog, instead of running out, Katelynn’s uncle, Charles Beecher, tells the local TV channel Fox 5.
– She was worried about her dog on the second floor and ran upstairs. Katelynn is an animal lover, just like us, says Beecher.
Kate (20) dead: – Horrible
Unfortunately, neither she nor the dog “Little Man” managed to get out of the burning house. The Spalding County Fire Department attempted to rescue the girl, but by the time firefighters arrived, the house was fully engulfed in flames.
– We will do everything we can, as far as is humanly possible, to try to make a difference in such situations. And these stories are very tragic for us, says operations manager Mike Byrd.
A firefighter was injured during the effort.
The fire service does not suspect that there is anything criminal behind the fire.
Katelynn’s family is in great grief, says Uncle Beecher.
– It is tough. She was only 11 years old. She was taken away from us far too soon, he says.
