A mother and her 14-year-old son were killed in a fire in their El Monte home, and two other boys, believed to be sons in the same household, were injured. El Monte fire dispatchers said no identities would be released until today, and the cause of the fire was under investigation. A 4-year-old, who apparently escaped the blaze through the kitchen door, was taken to Santa Teresita Hospital in Duarte, while his brother, age unknown, was rescued by firefighters through a bedroom window. He was in serious condition at Methodist Hospital in Arcadia.
