BAYVILLE, NY — A 94-year-old woman has been identified as the victim who died in a Bayville house fire earlier this week. Sonia Baron died and a second person was critically hurt Monday afternoon when flames swept through the home on Bayville Park Boulevard, Nassau County police said. A helicopter flew one person from the burning home to a hospital. Police said flames had engulfed the home by the time firefighters arrived. Two people were inside at the time. A man was found with serious injuries and was rushed to a hospital for treatment. Neighbors told News 12 that an elderly couple who used wheelchairs and walkers to get around lived in the home. They saw the man lying on the lawn with chest burns crying out for his wife, who was trapped inside. Three firefighters also had to be rushed to a hospital for treatment for minor injuries, police said.
