Second child dies after fire that killed mother and daughter in Ontario [Video]

Police say a 12-year-old girl has died after a house fire in Oshawa last week that also left her mother and nine-year-old sister dead.

Emergency officials were called to the scene on McGrigor Street just after 8 a.m. on Wednesday, where crews found all levels of the house in flames.

Three people were removed from the home and two of them — a 46-year-old woman and her nine-year-old daughter — were pronounced dead.

The other child removed from the house died from her injuries Monday morning.

Durham Police say the 56-year-old father of the children, who was found outside the burning home when crews arrived, is expected to survive as his condition has improved.
