BLOG EXTRA: Family Hit By An Avalanche of Tragedies

Just as a Long Beach family was mourning the death of three girls in a fire caused by a space heater Friday, the girls’ aunt was wounded in a shooting not far from the home where her three nieces died, the Los Angeles Times reported. The 21-year-old woman was reportedly shot in the lower leg when she was standing near the burned detached garage. Stephanie Aviles, 6, and her sister Jasmine, 10 died Friday while another sister Jocelin, 7, died Saturday. Let’s pray for this family that has been hit with one tragedy after another over such a short period of time. And let’s hope investigators zero in on how this horrific tragedy unfolded and who is responsible for it.
