THE PARENTS OF A CHILD WHO DIED IN A FIRE IN DELMAR LAST MONTH HAVE BEEN ARRESTED ON CHARGES OF CHILD ENDANGERMENT AND TWO FELONY CHARGES OF CHILD NEGLECT. THEIR 4-YEAR OLD DAUGHTER DIED IN THE DELMAR FIRE FEBRUARY 15TH. THE SHERIFF SAID THE GIRL DIED IN HER BEDROOM AFTER NOT BEING ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE ROOM APPARENTLY BECAUSE OF THE EXCISS DEBRIS IN THE ROOM OR THE LOCK MECHANISM ON THE DOOR. THE SHERIFF SAID THE GIRLS ROOM AND THE OTHER CHILDREN'S ROOMS HAD LOCKS INSTALLED SO THE CHILDREN COULD BE LOCKED IN THERE ROOMS.
THE VEHICLE OF THE WOMAN MURDERED LAST MONTH IN SAVANNA HAS BEEN FOUND ON A CITY STREET IN CHICAGO. BUT AUTHORITIES ARE STILL LOOKING FOR HER HUSBAND, WHO IS BELIEVED TO BE CONNECTED WITH HER MURDER.
