the victim’s grandmother said through tears. “It was too much.”

Medics rushed little Jason Eli to Cohen Children’s Medical Center but he could
not be saved.

Jason Eli, a 1-year-old Queens boy, died after his family’s two-story house
caught fire on 106th Ave. near 142nd St. in Jamaica on Sunday, May 14, 2023.

The blaze was brought under control at 11:52 p.m. The cause of the fire is not
yet clear but investigators do not believe it was intentionally set.

After the fire was extinguished, the city Department of Buildings issued a
vacate order because the house was illegally subdivided into single-room
occupancy dwellings. The baby’s family was living in the home’s attic.

Kelly’s daughter managed to save Kelly’s other grandson.

“She ran up and grabbed this one,” Kelly said, pointing to her grandson who
survived the fire. “She ran in back to grab the younger one. I don’t know what
started the fire. She lost the baby. She tried to come up for the baby. The baby
was in the crib.”





Kelly said her family had spent Sunday celebrating Mother’s Day.

“In the back, having some barbecue,” she told the Daily News.

Just over three hours later, a fire erupted in a three-story house on E. 92nd
St. near Clarkson Ave in East Flatbush.

The 2 a.m. blaze may have been sparked by a grill, officials said.



A 67-year-old woman and 8-year-old girl related to her were overcome by smoke.
Medics rushed them to Kings County Hospital, where the woman died. The girl is
in stable condition.

Janice Ross, 67, was killed when a fire erupted in a three-story house on E.
92nd St. near Clarkson Ave. in East Flatbush, Brooklyn, on Monday, May 15, 2023.

Sixty firefighters responded and brought the blaze under control at 2:37 a.m.

Police said it appears that fire was caused by a grill or barbecue.

“I used to live here in the neighborhood. I know the family,” said a former
neighbor. “I heard about the tragedy with grandma. We call her grandma. She’s
great. She’s a very great lady. She always says, ‘hello.’ She’s a part of the
community. She’s an elder. Everybody loves her here. We feel very bad about it.
It’s a big tragedy.”

Firefighters have been busy in recent days. Last week, eight people were killed
in three separate fires.

Early last Tuesday, Mufeed Al Haddad, 37, was inside his East New York home
using an accelerant to make vape dispensers he could sell when he accidentally
sparked a fire that killed his wife Amal Haddad, 36, and their daughter Dawlah,
10, officials said.



Another daughter, Rawan, 18, later died at Brookdale University Hospital. Two
other children, Rana, 14, and her brother, Ismael, 9, were badly hurt and the
family patriarch, who escaped with burns on his hands, is now under
investigation.

That same morning, a 70-year-old woman was killed in a Bronx fire on Grant Ave.
in Concourse Village. The victim’s husband said he believes burning incense
sparked the fire.

Two days earlier, a fire caused by an e-scooter battery ripped through an Inwood
apartment on W. 190th St.

Family matriarch Bertha Domenech Santiago, 94, and her disabled nephew, Luis
Dominech, died from their injuries.

Two others, Santiago’s home health aide and a male tenant of the building, were
reported Thursday to have also died. Their names have not yet been released.
