The two-story
frame house in Stowe Township was on a dead-end street where
other homes were boarded up, the newspaper said.
Stowe Township officials declined to comment on Sunday.
Five-month-old Gabriel Glikis was killed along with his
grandmother, Linda Tschudi, 50, and his uncle, Michael Tschudi,
Jr., 29, the paper said, citing the Allegheny County Medical
Examiner's office.
The baby's body was found upstairs and those of the two adults
at the bottom of the stairs, the paper reported, citing Stowe
Fire Marshal Martin Jacobs. The fire appeared to start on the
first floor and quickly spread throughout the house, a neighbor
said.
"I heard this screaming, fire, get out," said another neighbor,
Diana Johnson, 52, according to the newspaper. "You see a lot of
flames, you could feel the heat. It was really very intense."
The cause was under investigation, according to the newspaper.
