Ottawa's Cambodian community loses mother and 4 children to fire
Three members of close-knit family escaped alive from blaze above store
By Gloria GALLOWAY, Wednesday, April 6, 2005, Page A9
Ottawa -- Firefighters raced repeatedly up a narrow, smoke-filled staircase early yesterday to save six members of a close-knit Cambodian family who were trapped inside the burning apartment above their grocery store.
In the end, the rescue efforts were mostly futile. Five of the six -- a woman described as pillar of her community and four of her children -- died in the blaze. Only a son-in-law who had arrived recently from Cambodia was pulled from the inferno alive.
He was taken to hospital in critical condition along with his father-in-law, Bacara THACH. Witnesses: say Mr. THACH rescued his one-year-old grand_son, Sipheng, and tried to return for the others before the flames drove him back.
The patriarch tore across the street shortly before 2 a.m. to ask a neighbour to call firefighters back to the street in this city's Chinatown where, a short time earlier, they had extinguished a major fire less than a block away.
The trucks returned in less than three minutes.
"On arrival they encountered heavy smoke, heat and flames," Ottawa's Deputy Fire Chief Jim ULLETT said at a news conference yesterday. A frantic Mr. THACH told them that six of his loved ones were on the second floor of the small blazing building.
Some of the fire crew headed to the back while the others raced up the stairs beside the grocery store entrance.
"The crew that went up the front stairs came upon the first occupant, who they removed to the street, went back in the second time and encountered two more which they brought back down," Deputy Chief ULLETT said.
At the same time, the crew that had climbed the fire escape at the rear of the building were reaching in through a window and removing a fourth victim. That left two still missing.
"They went back in," Deputy Chief ULLETT said. "By now the fire had increased in intensity so they were putting themselves at great risk. They found one, brought that occupant out, went back in, fought the fire for approximately three or four minutes, found a sixth victim and brought that victim out."
Some of the firefighters continued to battle the blaze while others tried to resuscitate the unmoving bodies. But by the time paramedics arrived, it was apparent that the task was hopeless. All five were declared dead at the scene.
"This was two major fires back-to-back, something that happens very rarely," Deputy Chief ULLETT said. "It was a very difficult night and I am very proud of each and every one of them that was on that scene."
Fire investigators say the blaze, the worst in Ottawa in at least 40 years, started in a front bedroom. The fact that several of the victims were found beside a window suggests they may have been searching for an exit when they succumbed to the smoke or flames.
By late morning, photos of a smiling Kol Yan THACH, her daughter Lily, 23, and sons Gary, 14, Danny, 13, and Sonny, 12, had been taped to an exterior wall across the street from the fire that left the floor above the family grocery little more than a brick shell encasing charred rubble. Below the pictures, there was a small pile of bouquets.
The family had been in Canada for about 20 years and all of the boys were born here, as was Lily's one-year-old son, who was taken to hospital with burns in critical condition after Mr. THACH was able to save him.
A steady stream of onlookers, many of them youngsters who had attended Glashan Public School with the three THACH boys, came to stare at the remnants of the apartment and the photos of their lost Friends. Some wiped away tears. Others talked about the athletic young men who loved basketball and were "all-stars" on the school volleyball team.
"They were really nice. I argued with them a lot, but we would chill," said Jeffrey GENERO, 13, who admitted having the occasional falling out with the brothers. "I just became Friends with them again and now I just found out that they're dead."
Money HEANG, an outreach worker for the Cambodian community, was dispatched by the Somerset West Community Centre to help those who were distraught over the loss.
The grocery store was the only one of its kind in the neighbourhood run by Cambodians, she said.
"They were a focal point for news about the community," Ms. HEANG said. They were also known for the fundraising drives they organized to help people back in their home country.
Ms. HEANG, who shopped at the store regularly, said Mrs. THACH "was very friendly. She was a very nice woman."
Yesterday, the fire marshal was still trying to sort out what the caused the tragedy, but two theories were emerging.
Electricity to some of the block was cut off during the earlier blaze, so there was speculation that a candle could have ignited the fire.
A fire inspection of the grocery store in July, 2003, prompted by the family's desire to get a food licence, turned up some unapproved and deteriorating wiring. That was repaired, but the condition of the wiring in the apartment upstairs was unknown.

Body in Ottawa identified as missing 18-year-old
By Gloria GALLOWAY, Tuesday, September 20, 2005, Page A6
Ottawa -- Jennifer TEAGUE's family sat on the front step of their townhouse in suburban Barrhaven yesterday and waited for confirmation of what seemed brutally obvious -- the decomposing body found in a swamp a short drive away was indeed that of the athletic 18-year-old.
Exhausted after more than a week of torturous uncertainty, her brother and others had no public words to offer about the vivacious Jennifer, a student and soccer goalie who chatted with Friends on the walk home from her late shift at a fast food restaurant, then disappeared.
When the official identification of the remains finally came mid-afternoon, the police begged for some quiet time for her loved ones.
"Jennifer TEAGUE's family has requested for us to ask that their privacy be respected," Staff Sergeant Monique ACKLAND said. "They are going through very hard times and our heart goes out to them. Please leave the family alone."
Her devout father, Edward TEAGUE, had remained stalwart during the long days after her disappearance, refusing to give up hope that she was still alive. Her mother, Jean TEAGUE, was mostly too distraught to speak, but broke down at one press conference, telling her missing daughter to "please, please come home."
That possibility ended Sunday when an off-duty police officer discovered the body just steps from a small parking lot in a marshy conservation area. Much more testing needs to be done before a cause of death can be determined, said Staff. Sgt. ACKLAND, and it could be weeks before the results are known.
So, even if her family must accept that their pleas for her safe return will not be answered, they do not know what she endured before her death. And there are many other questions being asked by the people of Ottawa -- including is there a serial killer in their midst?
It was just over two years ago that Ardeth WOOD, a 27-year-old university student taking a break from doctoral studies in philosophy, did not return from a midday bike trip in another part of this city. Her naked body was discovered five days later just off a bike trail near the edge of a creek where it had been covered with branches and leaves. She had been drowned.
Despite a slew of eyewitness descriptions of a man who had been approaching women along the same path, her killer has never been found.
Staff Sgt. ACKLAND said yesterday that there is no apparent link between the two crimes. "The major team investigators are pursuing their investigation and they will not discard any possibility," she said. "However, at this point, I must stress that the two investigations do not appear to be related."
But the similarities are difficult to ignore. Both young women were accosted when they were alone. Both were apparently taken from bike paths. Both were found in the woods. Both had been partly concealed with debris from the surrounding forest.
"It's just too coincidental," said Sheila MacKINTOSH, the mother of two teenage girls who played in the same soccer league as Ms. TEAGUE.
As with many of the women who live near the spot where she was last seen, Ms. MacKINTOSH's daughters have found their freedom curtailed. They "don't take the bus alone and they don't walk two blocks" at night, she said yesterday when she stopped to view the crime scene. "It's definitely shaken them up, and shaken their Friends up."
Ms. TEAGUE's Friends are also, understandably, distraught. One of them who was with her on the night she vanished took reporters to task for suggesting that the slightly built teen was partly responsible for her own demise because she didn't spend eight dollars to take a taxi home.
"Jennifer didn't have eight dollars," she said, refusing to give her name and lambasting the news media for intruding on private grief. "And do I look like I have wheels?"
Matthew CLAYTON, another friend, had a hard time speaking after being told that it was indeed Ms. TEAGUE who had been found Sunday,
"We were hoping for the best, but I guess it just wasn't supposed to happen," he said, his voice breaking. "She was a great person."
The police acknowledge that, so far, they have no "persons of interest" in the case.
Yesterday, they trolled in hip waders through the area surrounding the spot where Ms. TEAGUE's body was found. Others paddled through it by canoe, pedalled the local roads and conducted overhead searches by helicopter. But they acknowledge that random crimes such as this are the hardest to solve -- and the most frightening.
"I am just afraid that no one can trust the neighbourhood any more," said Kelsey CARKNER, a teenager who was biking through the fast-food restaurant parking lot.
