In a media statement to Mwebantu, police spokesperson Esther Katongo said the victims were rushed to Solwezi General Hospital where the they are admitted.<\/p>\n

\u201cPolice received a report from Mervis Jatwa aged 37 that her tenant Obed Kajimanga, age not known and his two children, namely female juvenile Prudence Kajimanga aged two years and male juvenile Patrick Kajimanga aged five years sustained multiple burns on their bodies after the house they were sleeping in caught fire from unknown source,\u201d she said<\/p>\n

Mrs Katongo said the value of property damaged in the fire has not yet been established. She said an inquiry has been launched to establish the source of the fire.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has been observed from past experiences that reports of fire incidences increase during cold seasons when compared to any other period of the year. We therefore appeal to members of the public to avoid leaving any device that has potential to cause fire on when going to bed as such may be sources of fire,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
