April 28, 2012, Monsey, NY - The house that went up in flames when a 4-year-old was left home alone for 15 minutes Friday had no working smoke detectors, a fire official said Saturday. The fire destroyed the home but injured no one. Only a 4-year-old boy, Alexander Lliguichusca, was inside at the time. Two good Samaritans who happened to be nearby rushed in and led him to safety.
“We found the child by the door sitting by the bed,” said neighbor Saul Friedman, who was heading toward his car on Herrick Avenue when he saw flames and smoke coming from the house, then called 911 and dashed inside at the direction of the dispatcher. “He was shaking. He couldn’t talk.” Click Here for more.
3 Days later the father, Manuel Lliguichusca, was arrested on charges of endangering the welfare of a child. Click Here for that story.
Amazing raw footage of the fire just as the fire departments arrived.
