UPDATE: LITTLE KIDS LEFT ALONE IN TEXAS FIRE THAT KILLED THEM.

While we normally do not cover fires that don’t involve FF injury or worse, this update is worthy of note as that Houston home day care operator actually had left the little kids alone she was caring for without adult supervision. This was done last week, while a stovetop burner was on, causing the fire that later killed 4 kids and injured 3 others.

The Houston FD also announced today that the day care operator, Jessica Tata, has fled the United States and they had asked the U.S. Marshals Service in Houston to help track her down. They believe Tata, 22, has fled to Nigeria, where she is originally from. Tata, 22, was charged late Sunday evening with reckless injury to a child involving serious bodily injury involving the death of 3-year-old Shomari Dickerson. The charge carries a sentence of two to 10 years in prison.
