A grandmother of the children who lived across the street said that the children and the adults had to jump from the second floor.
“Knowing that they all had to jump out of the windows and then they’re just running around, it was nuts,” said Stacey Tetlak, the grandmother.
The ages of the children are two, five, 11, 14, 16, and 17. A 34-year-old woman and a 44-year-old man were also inside the home.
All eight people were transported to MetroHealth for minor injuries.
The cause of the fire was determined to be accidental.
