The thirteen-year-old sole survivor of Sunday’s tragedy in Springfield, Westmoreland, in which three brothers were burnt to death in a house fire, is in need of extensive overseas treatment.
Minister of Education and Youth, Fayval Williams, visited the family on Monday afternoon to give her support.
She confirmed that the child, who’s currently hospitalised in critical condition due to severe burns, is in need of foreign treatment.
Shortly before 8PM on Sunday, a fire is believed to have started by a lit candle during an electricity outage in the area.
While Adrianna was rescued from the fire, her 7-year-old twin brothers Jorden and Jayden and their eight-year-old brother Adrianno Laing perished in the blaze.
Their charred remains were found by firefighters from the Negril fire station during cooling down operations.
Minister Williams says the children’s father, Adrian, has been receiving the Government’s support.
