The parents of four young children who tragically died in a "gas explosion" at their family home have been arrested for gross negligence manslaughter. 24-year-old Natalie Unitt and her partner, 28-year-old Chris Moulton, jumped out of the first-floor window with their youngest child, 2-year-old Jack, after the flames broke out in their home on February 5. 

The couple's sons - 3-year-old Olly and 6-year-old Keegan - died in the flames along with their sister - 4-year-old Tilly, and Unitt's eldest child from an earlier relationship - 8-year-old Riley. Moulton is thought to have received treatment for the burns and Unitt received treatment for smoke inhalation, according to The Daily Mail. They are still in the hospital but their injuries are not life-threatening.
