A young boy and his father are fighting for life after their home went up in flames in Melbourne‘s west.
James and his seven-year-old son Zayne suffered serious injuries and were taken to hospital in a critical condition.
Zayne was placed in the ICU at the Royal Children’s Hospital with third-degree burns to his face, hands and feet according to James’ sister Laressa Turetahi.
The pair both have third-degree burns but are in stable condition.
“This young family has lost their home, their belongings, and their sense of safety all in a single night,” she said in a fundraiser she set up for the family.
