7 Children Killed In Brooklyn House Fire. This is so sad, three girls — ages 8, 12, 15 — and four boys — ages 5, 6, 7 and 11 — were killed, Fire Commissioner Daniel Nigro said. They are saying that a hot plate malfunction may be the cause of the fire. The family is Jewish and they left it on because of the Sabbath. “Many religious Jews do not use electricity on the Sabbath, along with refraining from work and observing other prohibitions meant to keep the day holy. As a result, some families may leave them on so they are usable without violating any religious laws or traditions.”
