A second person has died in a Pittsburgh hospital after being injured in a fire Friday in Chartiers Township. Saundra McLaughlin, 62, died at 3:22 p.m. Sunday in West Penn Hospital after she was found in her yard while her mobile home in the township’s Meadow Lands section was engulfed in flames, a spokeswoman for the Allegheny County medical examiner’s office confirmed. Glenn McLaughlin, 66, who also lived in the home, died Saturday in the same hospital. A township fire official said two others lived in the home at 335½ Ewing St., but they were not there when the fire broke out about 1:15 p.m. The relationship between the McLaughlins was not immediately known Sunday. The cause and manner of Saundra McLaughlin’s death remains under investigation.
