A fire that destroyed a house in Ravensmead, Cape Town yesterday has led to the death of a one-year-old girl.


Disaster Risk Management says that neighbours reported that the house was overcrowded.


Four adults were treated for serious burn wounds at Tygerberg Hospital.


The city Disaster’s Wilfred Solomons-Johannes says the fire was caused by a candle that fell over.
