Pennsylvania siblings, aged 9 and 6, killed in house fire, mom survives by jumping from second floor
SEWICKLEY, PENNSYLVANIA: Two children died in the early morning hours of Tuesday, December 13, after a fire broke out in their Pennsylvania home. Nine-year-old Lyric Keys and her six-year-old brother, Jack Wylde Lightner, were killed at their home in Sewickley, Pennsylvania.
“They were amazing, smart, kind kids. They lit up every room they were in. They are our entire world,” said the children’s father, Robbie Linn, according to WSAZ. Neighbor Tom Pastore said he saw flames coming from the house just before 3 am. “I started hearing loud pops, sort of like fireworks, and then, I would hear screaming,” Pastore said. “I saw the house was on fire… My first thoughts were the children. They’re innocent, the little kids. I was praying for them,” he added.
