KALAMAZOO, Mich. (WOOD) - A fifth person has died following a fire at a Texas Township home last month.
Sixteen people were in the home at 6835 N Avenue that caught fire April 25.
Four kids -- Kianna Bracken, 2, Deontae Vaughn, 4, Zion Bryant, 4, and Daniel Adams, 6 -- died from smoke inhalation. Their funeral is being held Monday.
A fifth person -- 22-year-old Daniela Adams -- died early Monday after being hospitalized since the blaze. There is no word yet on funeral arrangements for her.
Another victim, Vernon Bryant, 5, is in good condition at a hospital.
Family members speculate the fire may have been started as a result of children playing with a lighter.
