Ensenada.- One adult and four children died in a fire that destroyed their small, impoverished house before dawn Tuesday, state authorities reported.
The victims were burned beyond recognition. Based on interviews, authorities believe they were an elderly person and four children, the state Attorney Generals Office said.
The fire was reported at 1:44 a.m. in a tiny house in the poor neighborhood of Colonia 89, located east of the port.
Authorities said the house was fully engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived and they were not able to rescue the inhabitants.
