<p>A third person has died from a New Year&#8217;s attack in which police say a Puerto Rican man using kerosene and a propane tank set fire to more than a dozen of his family members and a visiting US woman as they sat down for dinner.</p>
<p>Among the five people still hospitalised are 25-year-old Kate Donahue of Seattle and her fiance, Jesus Sanchez, both with burns over more than 80%of their bodies, hospital spokeswoman Wilmelis Marquez said. The recently engaged Seattle couple had travelled to Puerto Rico so Donahue could meet Sanchez&#8217;s family.</p>
<p>The mother of the man suspected of carrying out the attack, 45-year-old Justino Sanchez Diaz, died of her injuries on Tuesday, Marquez said. Earlier, a 17-year-old niece and a 32-year-old cousin of Sanchez Diaz died. The suspect is the uncle of Donahue&#8217;s fiance.</p>
<p>Donahue&#8217;s family flew to Puerto Rico shortly after they got the news, Austin Martin, a friend of Donahue&#8217;s who is a pastor in Arizona, said. &#8220;They&#8217;ve been able to see her, but she&#8217;s been put in a medically induced coma, so they haven&#8217;t been able to speak with her,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>Friends of the couple set up a Facebook account and asked for donations to help pay for medical transport back to Seattle. &#8220;It is a long road ahead to heal physically, emotionally, and spiritually,&#8221; states the page.</p>
<p>Donahue works as a nurse for Group Health, according to her Facebook page. Sanchez is a Boeing engineer, according to The Seattle Times. Donahue&#8217;s mother, Michelle Donahue, told reporters both are very much in love.</p>
<p>&#8220;Their last words before they were intubated were, &#8216;For each other,'&#8221; she said. &#8220;She loves him. He loves her. The last six months have been the happiest time of her life.&#8221;</p>
<p>The blaze occurred on Saturday in the central Puerto Rican mountain town of Florida, where Sanchez Diaz lives in a two-storey house with his parents and a sister, police Lt Reinaldo Jimenez said.</p>
<p>Sanchez Diaz had doused the walls of the house with gasoline and set canisters filled with fuel under the dining room table and other furniture, he said. &#8220;He planned the party so that everyone would show up,&#8221; Jimenez said.</p>
<p>As soon as the 14 people sat down for an early dinner on January 1, Sanchez emerged from his room armed with a 20-pound container of propane gas and then doused them with kerosene, Jimenez said witnesses told police. He then set them on fire using a stick wrapped with a towel soaked in fuel.</p>
