The state Fire Marshal’s Office believes an unattended pot left on a stove top led to a fatal fire at a Baton Rouge apartment complex that killed a 5-year-old girl. Chief Deputy Brant Thompson says an 18-year-old was caring for her sister, Treasure Garner, when she tried to cook fried chicken and left the apartment with a pot of grease on the stove. He says she returned to find the apartment filled with smoke, and there was a frantic attempt to rescue the little girl from the burning home.
Cut 9 (12) “upstairs bedroom”
Thompson says they are still trying to determine how long the 18-year-old was out of the apartment. He says the girl was missing for some time, as first responders tried to determine if Treasure had escaped. He says fire fighters eventually quelled the flames enough to enter the residence and found Treasure dead in a bedroom.
Cut 10 (12) “the fire”
At least 10 units were damaged in the fire, but Thompson says the investigation is still ongoing into the extent of the damage. He says several other people in the complex were transported to area hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries.
