BALTIMORE (AP) -- Fire officials say an electrical fault caused a December fire that killed six members of a family, including three children.

Battalion Chief Kevin Cartwright tells WBAL Radio that wind was a factor in fighting the fire.

The fire broke out early on Dec. 14 in a home in North Baltimore. Killed in the blaze were Richard and Eleanor Satterfield, their granddaughter Tiara and her three young children.
