The children, who ranged in age from 11 months to 10 years, were all from the same extended family.Firefighters were able to pull four of the unconscious children from the apartment Tuesday before the building began to collapse, but efforts to revive at least two from cardiac arrest were unsuccessful. The other bodies were recovered from the charred remains of the building.
