MILWAUKEE — Fire officials said Friday that a blaze in a two-story, wood-frame home that killed four children, ages 3 to 6, and seriously injured a relative who tried to save them began when a space heater ignited a piece of clothing. Officials said 18 other people were able to escape the building unharmed.
