Authorities say at least four people were injured in a fire at home in the Wakefield section of the Bronx.
The fire started just before 8:30 p.m. Saturday at 4061 Lowerre Place. Fire crews got the flames under control after 9 p.m.
The landlord told News 12 a family of six lives on the top floor. She says one of the children lit a candle and a mattress caught on fire on the second floor.
The FDNY says four four people were taken to NYC Health + Hospitals/Jacobi.
The homeowner says it was the four kids that went to the hospital, but they expected to be OK.
