Emergency vehicles were clogging the South St. Paul street as Chanry Soeng arrived home after working the second shift at a Lakeville packaging plant.
When she realized they were at her house, she sprinted toward the door, demanding to see her children.
First responders restrained her, then delivered terrible news: her husband, Soeun Sem, 60, and the couple’s youngest son, 2-year-old Eric, had died in the fire. Their older boy, 5-year-old Alexander, had been taken to Regions Hospital in St. Paul, but would not survive the night.
