Sealy, who lived in the house with her two children Amari Welch and Alisha Welch, ages 7 and 9 respectively, said she had just stepped out when she received a call that her house was on fire.
“I just left home and then I got a call from my friend telling me, ‘Keisha you house on fire’ and by time I get here everything gone,” said Sealy as she broke into tears. (SM)
