NYC Fire Takes the Life of Another Child

New York (AP)  -- For the second time in as many days, fire took the lives of a New York child and a man.
   
Both perished just after midnight in the three-story house in Brooklyn's Bushwick neighborhood.
   
The 12-year-old boy and 33-year-old man were taken to Wyckoff Hospital, where they were pronounced dead. It was not immediately clear whether the victims were related.
   
Authorities did not release their names, pending notification of family.
   
Fire marshals are investigating the cause of the blaze.
   
On Saturday, fire took the lives of five members of the same family. A six member, a 10-year-old boy, is clinging to life at Jacobi Hospital in the Bronx.
