A 7-year-old boy critically injured earlier this week in a blaze at a firefighter's home on Chicago's northwest side has died.

The Cook County medical examiner's office identified the child Thursday as Ezra Stewart.

The boy, his 34-year-old mother and his two sisters — ages 2 and 7 — suffered from smoke inhalation and were rushed to hospitals Tuesday night after being rescued from the burning home. He was pronounced dead Wednesday evening.
