CBS Texas reports that 5-year-old Lyxander Barboza Mendoza died in a June 25 house fire on McCart Avenue in Fort Worth. Two of his siblings remained in critical condition in Parkland’s burn unit when the outlet reported on their conditions July 9.
The Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported another part of the response to the fire: A driver passing the house broke through a glass door and pulled two children from the burning home before firefighters arrived.
The local reports describe a fire that killed one child and left two siblings undergoing critical care. Because their conditions were reported as of July 9, that information reflects the latest medical update supplied in the available reporting rather than a current determination.
Lyxander was 5 years old. The fire occurred June 25 at the family’s home on McCart Avenue, and the two injured children were treated in Parkland’s burn unit.
