It just took a split second to lose three precious people. Lasumping Yatun, 46, a single mother and her two daughters Penneysia, 15, and Jessica, 4, were burnt to death when a fire swept through their wooden house at Kampung Lasau Minusod in the northern Kota Belud district, here in Kuala Kinabalu.
When the fire broke out, Lasumping and her daughters were sleeping at on the upper floor, while her son, Jerizal Jussine, 20, was sleeping in a bedroom on the ground floor at the time. As soon as Jerizal heard the screams of his mother and sisters, he tried to run in to rescue them but was hampered by thick smoke.
The cause of the fire is being investigated. The bodies of Lasumping, a school clerk, and her two daughters were taken to the Kota Belud district hospital for a post-mortem.
