5 die in blaze
as firefighters
cut iron bars
DALLAS (AP) — Three children
and two teen-agers, huddled to
gether in one room, died in a blaze
Wednesday as firefighters struggled
to cut through iron burglar bars to
free them.
Another child was in critical con
dition with burns, officials said.
“At this time, the cause is still un
der investigation,” Dallas Fire De
partment investigator Raymond Lee
said.
Lee said a gasoline can was found
in the house. “All we know at this
point is that it was bought to mow
the yard,” he said.
Beverly Handy, a field agent with
the Dallas County Medical Examin
er’s office, identified the victims as:
Jasmine Jordan, 1, Ericka Jordan, 9,
Jamal Jordan, 6, Bernard Jordan,
16, Demetra Jordan, 18.
Causes of the deaths had not been
determined, Handy said.
Parkland Memorial Hospital
spokesman Tom Geddie said Ke-
trick Jordan, 10, was in critical con
dition with burns over about half of
his body. A blood drive had been
started for him at the hospital, offi
cials said.
Officials said the children all lived
with their grandmother, 52-year-old
Molly Jordan, who was working at
the Dallas Veterans Administration
Medical Center when the fire began.
She was called to the scene by fire
officials and later was hospitalized
with shock.
The children were found gath
ered in one bedroom, suggesting
they were aware of the fire, officials
said. Fire officials found the oldest
boy, Bernard, huddled over two of
the younger children — apparently
trying to protect them — on the
floor between two twin beds.
“Just guessing, I’d say it took at
least five minutes longer getting in
(because of the bars),” Investigator
Doug Preston said. “It could have
been longer. A few minutes can be
the difference between life and
death.”
The fire department received the
call at 4:09 a.m. and arrived with two
vehicles, including a bar-cutting saw,
at 4:12 a.m., Preston said.
Fire investigator Don Howard
said firefighters were also hampered
by a love seat pushed against the
house door.
It was not the first time burglar
bars have slowed fire rescue or es
cape efforts in the city.
Shortly after four women and
three children died in January 1986
in a house protected by barred win
dows and doors, the Dallas City
Council changed the building code
requiring the bars be able to open on
hinges from the inside.
The law wasn’t retroactive.
In August 1987, two separate fires
in which bars were on the windows
claimed the lives of three people.
“The newer Dallas code requires
that the bars be able to open from
the inside,” Preston said. “These
were the older ones. They can’t be
pulled off. They’re usually bolted
through the walls.”
