Man battles for life in hospital unaware that wife and two children were killed in mystery house fire
34-year-old Gavin Collison is critically ill and fighting for his life after the fire, completely unaware that his wife and two children did not survive the tragic incident
A man is fighting for his life at a hospital after a fire engulfed his home but is unaware that the same fire claimed the lives of his wife and two children. The fire that ripped through a residence in Collingham, near Newark, Nottinghamshire, claimed the lives of 33-year-old Justine Collison, eight-year-old Isabella, and five-year-old Harvey.
The 34-year-old father, RAF engineer Gavin, was pulled out of the blaze by emergency rescue services and rushed to the hospital for treatment, where he is expected to pull through. The fire also resulted in the death of the family's golden retriever, with only Justine's mother, 53-year-old Diane Fletcher, escaping unscathed, at least physically.
