SCRANTON, LACKAWANNA COUNTY- A Lackawanna County fire that killed a five-year-old boy has been ruled an accident.
Angel Vasquez lived at an apartment on Herbert Street in Scranton.
In September, the little boy had burns on more than 12-percent of his body in a fire at the apartment.
The boy's father took him to the hospital.
He later died from complications from the burn injuries.
Scranton police were unaware of the child's death until the Lehigh County coroner notified them.
A two-month investigation revealed that the death and the fire were both accidental. | |
