Overview
- Rylee, 10, Connor, 9, and Alena Kannin, 7, died after a Thanksgiving night blaze at their father's Kenosha apartment.
- A search warrant says first responders arrived at 10:39 p.m. to find the unit fully engulfed and a man saying children were inside.
- The warrant records Joshua Kannin saying he smoked in the kitchen, believed the cigarette was out, later saw a small fire on the floor, panicked, and went for help.
- Investigators seized his cellphone from a bedroom as evidence and continue to assess all possibilities, with no indication of criminal activity at this time.
- Dozens gathered for a vigil and memorial outside the building, funerals are planned later this week, and a fundraiser met costs with remaining funds to be donated to the funeral home.
