The grief-stricken Bronx mom who lost three sons in a raging weekend fire heard two of her boys crying for help in video of the blaze posted online — and was so traumatized that she worked the phones from her hospital bed to get the footage yanked, kin said Tuesday.
“[The mother] saw a video where some sort of yelling from the kids were on it, it was circulating,” said family friend Zaid Nagi, vice president of the Yemeni-American Merchants Association, at the funerals for 22-year-old Ahmed Saleh, his two young brothers — Mohamed Waleed Ahmed, 12, and Kalheed Ben Salh, 10 — and his 10-month-old daughter Barah.
“She actually called some of the local Facebook pages to remove it because she just couldn’t handle it,” Naqi said of the mom of the brothers and grandmother of little Barah.
