An infant is dead and a woman is in hospital after a house fire in Toronto early Friday. Up to four other people were in the house when the fire started and all of them managed to escape unharmed, the deputy fire chief said. CBCs Chris Glover has more from the scene.

Toronto police have charged a 19-year-old woman with murder and arson after her four-month-old baby died in a fire last week.

Police say the woman and the baby girl were pulled from a house fire in the city's northwest.

They say the baby was rushed to hospital and pronounced dead there.

The woman was also taken to hospital with serious injuries.

Police say the woman has now been charged with second-degree murder and arson with disregard for human life.

She was due to appear in court earlier this week.
