A 27-year-old woman has been arrested on suspicion of child neglect after two sets of young twins were killed in a house fire in south London.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

The children, all boys aged three and four, were given CPR by firefighters called to Collingwood Road in Sutton.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

All of the boys had been left home alone and were taken to two separate hospitals where they later died, the London Fire Brigade (LFB) said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

The cause of Thursday evening’s fire is under investigation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

LFB’s deputy commissioner Richard Mills said the first firefighters arrived in under three minutes after being called before 19:00 GMT.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“On arrival there were four children in the house,” Mr Mills said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“Entering a building and rescuing life is always a very difficult place to be.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“The age of the children, the fact they are so young, will have a profound impact on them [the firefighters].<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“The cause of the fire is currently unknown and we have fire investigation teams on scene at present along with the Metropolitan Police to determine the cause of the fire.”<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Sixty firefighters battled an “intense” blaze throughout the entire ground floor of the mid-terrace property.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

After finding the children inside the house, crews brought them outside where they were given “immediate emergency care”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Trauma teams from London’s Air Ambulance and Air Ambulance Kent Surrey Sussex were also dispatched.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

The London Ambulance Service’s Brian Jordan told BBC Breakfast: “We had a whole range of our resources there to try and do everything we could to save the children.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“All of our crews are trained to deal with situations like this, but these kinds of situations will obviously be affecting them very hard.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“We will obviously provide all the support to them that we can.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“I think it’s very difficult at this time of year as we approach Christmas and that makes it much more poignant as well.”<\/p>\n
