Community grieves for children killed in fire

Two empty desks and chairs will be quite noticeable today at the Calabar Infant, Primary and Junior High School as siblings Keriecia Hutchinson and Samson Cameron will not be there to fill them.

The siblings died tragically in a blaze on Saturday at their Smith Lane, Kingston, home in downtown Kingston. As she makes preparation for her children to start the new school week, a neighbour of the grieving parents said she is devastated.
