A mother is due to appear in a British court charged with the murder of her four-month-old baby boy who died in a house fire.
Danielle Wails (21) will appear before magistrates in Newcastle accused of the murder of her son Alexander Gallon.
The child died in a fire at a two-bedroom property in Cowgate, Newcastle, on Sunday night.
Neighbours were alerted to the fire but could not break the front door down; when a fire crew managed to get through Ms Wails stumbled out with her baby trapped inside.
