House Fire Kills Girls, 2 and 11-Months Old

LANCASTER, S.C. (AP) - Investigators have not determined what caused a fire that killed two sisters and injured five other people. Dominique Rose, 2, and 11-month-old Taleiya Rose were killed in the blaze that began Saturday, said Ken Vick, Lancaster County deputy coroner. The girls died from smoke inhalation, he said. Fire officials say the blaze originated near the stove, but the exact cause of the fire is not known. "What happened, happened to a very loving home," said the children's grandfather Randy Hood. "There's no need to be angry because it was clearly an accident. Those two children were loved to death." The children were spending the night at Shirley Stover's home when the fire broke out. Stover and her daughter, 11-year-old daughter Tiera Stover, were being treated at Augusta Medical Center's Burn Center in Augusta, Ga. Stover's two other children, Joshua Stover, 10, and Tremon Stover, 8, were treated and released Sunday from a Lancaster hospital. Stover's boyfriend David Lunn is being treated for burns at Springs Memorial Hospital in Lancaster.
