A local doughnut shop is making a special batch of desserts to benefit the victims of Thursday’s deadly house fire.
Diablo Doughnuts in Fells Point took to Facebook to announce the sale of heart-shaped doughnuts this weekend, with 100 percent of proceeds going to the Malone family.
The doughnuts will be sold for $3 each—cash only—Friday through Sunday.

“It's about helping a family that lost the most important things in life,” the shop said in a Facebook post.
Six children died in a house fire in 4200 block of Springwood Avenue near Belair Road. Their mother, Kim Ward Malone, a longtime staff member of Rep. Elijah Cummings, and three other children, managed to escape and are being treated at the hospital.
