LORAIN, Ohio — A 7-year-old girl died in a fire early Sunday morning in Lorain.
Officials responded to a home on 1912 Washington Avenue around 3:15 a.m. and found the residence engulfed in flames.
Five people were able to escape the burning home.
"The one little girl was screaming, 'Find her! Find her! Find her!'" a neighbor told WKYC. "Dad came and he was just screaming bloody murder. As a parent, I had goosebumps."
A makeshift memorial has taken over the steps of the home where people are leaving stuffed animals in the girl's memory.
The fire's cause remains under investigation.
A donation page has been established on Facebook to raise money for the victim's family.
