Police in Gloucestershire say two children and their mother died in a house fire which ripped through their home in Stroud on Boxing Day. The woman, in her late thirties, was trapped inside the property along with a seven-year-old girl and a four-year-old boy. Police said their father, who's a serving police officer, had tried to get into the property several times to rescue them, but the scale of the blaze made it impossible. #Stroud #BoxingDay #Channel4News
