A 10-day-old child was taken to Johns Hopkins Hospital Monday where he was treated and released after a wall fell onto his crib due to an explosion in his neighbor's apartment.
Frederick Turner of the Housing Authority of Baltimore responded to a complain from the two hundred block of North Ausquith Street. Firefighters arrived to extinguish the one alarm fire, officials said.
Arnetta Sands, 36, was spraying insecticide in her kitchen from an aerosol can when it ignited from the heated stove. Sands was received first degree burns to her back and arms and was taken to Church Home and Hospital where she was treated and released.
The child, Andre Henderson, was sleeping when the wall between the two apartments collapsed. Firefighters removed the portion of the wall off of the crib, officials said.
Henderson was taken to Johns Hopkins Hospital for possible smoke inhalation but is okay. The child's mother, Renee Henderson, 23, was uninjured. The fire investigator said the fire was accidental.
