PHOENIX (AP) - Phoenix police on Tuesday released the name of a 4-year-old girl who was found dead after an apartment fire was extinguished last weekend.
They say Jordan Halfacre was discovered near the front of the apartment early Sunday and declared dead at the scene.
There’s no word yet on how the girl died.
City firefighters rescued a man, a woman and a 10-year-old girl after crews responded to the scene and saw three people signaling for help from a second-floor bedroom window.
Firefighters used a ladder to reach the window and broke the glass and transported the three survivors to a burn center.
Police say the woman was the mother of the two girls and the man was an apartment roommate.
The names of the woman, man and 10-year-old girl haven’t been released.
Fire Department officials say the cause of the fire remains under investigation, but it appears to be accidental.
