A two-year-old child died in a house fire over the weekend in Fenelton.
Crews were called to a fire at a home in the 2000 block of Old Route 422 just before 8 a.m. Saturday.
When crews got on scene, they escalated it to a two-alarm fire. While Alex Umbaugh and Melina Bryner were able to escape, they quickly realized their two-year-old son Jesse Umbaugh was still inside.
They tried to go back inside, but the flames were too intense.
State police say the child was found inside and died on the scene.
An investigation is underway to determine what started the fire.
A GoFundMe page has been started for the family. There is also a clothing drive happening at The Coffee Shop and Fox’s Pizza Den, both in Chicora.
