Four young children die in blaze after 'drifter sets fire to their houses with can of gasoline'

A drifter has been charged with murder after four young children died when he set fire to their southern Illinois house as they slept, authorities say. Derrick Twardoski, 33, knew the children's parents and family members say he was exercising a vendetta of some kind because the tires of the cars in the driveway were slashed and an empty gas can was found outside the house. Ethan Owen, 12, Kailey Owen, 9 and five-year-old twins Brandon and Landon Owen perished in their beds during the 2am blaze Friday morning at the house in Percy, Illinois.
