Slug: Wall

Wall

A 36- year old injured Baltimore woman and an infant were sent to the hospital Jan. 3 after a one alarm fire broke out at 12:13 a.m. in two apartments on the 200 block of North Aisquith Street, police said.

The injured woman, Arnetta Sands from apartment 10B, was treated and released for first- degree burns from Church Home and Hospital. The infant, Andre Henderson from apartment 10C, was treated and released for smoke inhalation from Hopkins Hospital and is doing okay.

The stove had been on in Sands apartment when she sprayed insecticide from an aerosol can which caused an explosion. The wall between the two apartments collapsed after the explosion and landed on the baby’s crib, where he was sleeping.

Firefighters removed a portion of the wall off of the crib before investigators declared the incident accidental. The mother of the infant, Renee Henderson,23, was uninjured. There was fire damage to the kitchen and furnishings in apartment 10B.
