tims as Sandy Morales, 61. The
other three victims were tenta
tively identified as Billie Baly,
45; Raymond Casanova, 65; and
Woodrow Gonzalez, 62. Two
other people were believed to be
missing after the fire was put
out, but Lopez said a thorough
search of the debris had unco
vered no additional victims.
“The woman who owned the
building was very distraught
and thought there might have
been a couple of more people
living there,” he said. “But we
searched through the rubble
and didn’t find anyone. We
think now she may have been
confused and thinking of the
three who escaped the fire.”
Lopez said a visitor drove up
to the house when the fire began
and saw an explosion.
“1 believe the explosion was
from accumulated smoke in the
house,” Lopez said. Lopez said
the cause for the fire had not
been determined.
“I was just resting in the chair
when I heard so much noise I
didn’t know what was going on,”
Erwin Schulde, 73, one of three
surviving residents, said. “The
landlady came and knocked on
my door and told me the home
was on fire, so I left.”
Other witnesses said flames
completely engulfed the white
A fire department dispatcher
said four or five fires had been
reported in the King William
area in the past year.

and green house.
Damages to both houses were
estimated at about $200,000. It
took two and a half hours for
more than 100 firefighters with
about two dozen units of equip
ment to extinguish the blaze.
One fireman received minor
medical treatment for a knee in-
jury.
Lopez said the rent-
subsidized home caught fire
quickly and the flames spread to
tne adjacent two-story wood
home. An elderly couple in the
adjacent home escaped when a
neighbor ran to the door and
tolcf them the fire had broken
out.
A woman living across the
street in the renovated historical
neighborhood just south of
downtown said she saw flames
shooting out the first floor win
dows and onto the front porch.
“I didn’t see nobody trying to
get out, just big flames coming
outside,” Maria Rothenbach
said. “I heard my dog barking
and I went to see and I saw the
insides of the room all on fire.
The fire started already going to
the next house.”
