Fire claims two stories as Hayward mother survives in hospital
A $19,000 Hayward fire left Loretta Anderson and two children hospitalized in serious condition. Her 7 year old son Scott and 4 year old daughter Julie escaped unharmed. Nearby incidents include a San Leandro crash injuring Melvin and Beulah Jareez, and a separate collision that killed a child in San Leandro. A parallel report notes a Grant Stenhouse Jr in intensive care after a Fairmont Hospital transfer following a wreck that killed his son. A Kenneth MacLaughlin faces manslaughter charges as the family tragedy unfolds in Oakland and surrounding areas. The interstate wagon train story from Georgia to Washington adds a distant, unrelated note.
