A North Carolina mother, 28-year-old Reagan Powers, has been charged after her 4 young daughters died in a house fire. She had allegedly left the children inside, placed in the care of an 11-year-old.

According to a release issued by the Columbus County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO), the incident occurred on August 30. At around 2:30 a.m., CCSO units responded to a North Colony Road residence following a report of a house fire with entrapments.

Upon arrival, the home was found fully engulfed in flames. This, unfortunately, made it impossible for deputies and other first responders to make a safe entry into the house. Two juveniles managed to escape the residence before EMS personnel arrived at the scene.
