Two toddlers die in shack fire


By Chanel September

Two children were killed in a fire that burned two shacks and a small RDP house in Lotus River on Friday.

A call came through at 9pm and emergency services and a fire engine were dispatched to the scene.

Greg Pillay of the Cape Town Disaster Management told the Sunday Argus that the children were aged between one and three.

It seems that the fire started by a toppled candle.
