Its every parents worst nightmare. The Kinard's house caught fire on Bully Creek Road early Wednesday morning. The father, Michael Kinard initially escaped, but ran back into the burning house three times in an attempt to save his three children, ages 6, 8, and 10.

Michael was able to pull all three children out, but the kids along with Michael and his wife were all badly burned.

The family was transported to the University of Utah burn center in Salt Lake City for treatment, but sadly the 8 year old son has passed away from his injuries.

The condition of the rest of the family remains critical and according to KTVB, the cause of the fire remains under investigation.
