A
Maryland mother, her 17-year-old son, and their neighbor have died after being
pulled from a burning home.
The
Anne Arundel County Fire Department says they pulled 39-year-old Lettitia
Sinnah and her 17-year-old son, Sundima Sinnah, from the Brooklyn Park home
around 2:40 a.m. Tuesday. They also pulled out their neighbor, 45-year-old
Christopher Rickman. All three were pronounced dead after being taken to
hospitals in critical condition.
Capt.
Russ Davies says Lettitia Sinnah died trying to save her son, and that Rickman
died trying to save them both.
Davies
said the woman’s husband and 20-year-old son survived the fire.
He
says Lettitia Sinnah had initially made it out but went back in to save
Sundima, who was on the second floor.
The
cause of the fire is under investigation.
