Ghaziabad: A fire engulfed a house in Ghaziabad’s Kanchan Park on Sunday morning, killing a 32-year-old woman and three young children, while two others sustained injuries and are currently receiving treatment at a Delhi Hospital. The fire erupted allegedly due to a short circuit in the house. According to the fire department, information about the incident was received at the Loni fire station at 7.06 am and three fire engines were pressed into service. After reaching the spot, it was found that the fire had broken out on the second and third floors of the house and people were trapped inside. The house was in a congested lane and hence the fire engines were parked outside and water spraying was started after extending hose pipes through adjacent houses, it said.
