PALMVIEW, TX
Family members identified the child as Rodolfo Tijerina. Family members tried to rescue the child after the fire broke out about 4:30 p.m. Thursday, but were forced back
by intense heat and smoke. His aunt, Yadira Rodriguez, tells The
Monitor of McAllen that Rodolfo was hiding under a bed and held out
his arms and cried for help as she and her mother vainly attempted
his rescue.
The cause of the fire hasn't been determined.
