A woman is dead and a man is fighting for life after what police believe was a domestic violence incident in Logan early this morning.
Neighbours think a molotov cocktail was used to set fire to the home with children inside at Bidyan Boulevarde in New Beith around three o’clock this morning.
When firefighters arrived they found the home fully engulfed by flames and the roof partially collapsed.
Inside they discovered the body of a 31 year old woman and a 33 year old man with burns to ninety percent of his body and a 30 year old woman with suspected airway burns.
They were both rushed to the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital hospital by ambulance and the three children aged 5, 3 and two who escaped the blaze without injuries were taken to the Queensland Children’s Hospital for observation.
Three fire crews now have the blaze under control and are dampening down hot spots.
A fire investigator is expected to be on scene later this morning.
