This from Steve Redick:

We spent the day at Indy yesterday…and we were 90 minutes out of town when they had the big job so we missed it. We did catch this job in the far southern suburb of Tinley Park when we got back to town. It was just about done when we finally found it, and 1 victim was removed prior to our arrival and did not survive. Here are some rig shots and some overall scene shots. This is an area I never get to, so these are some new sights for me…

The Chicago Tribune reports that a house fire in Tinley Park today claimed the life of an elderly woman:

An elderly Tinley Park woman died in a fatal fire Friday morning at a condo-complex on the 6200 block of Pine Trail Lane in Tinley Park, officials confirmed.

The fire started inside the woman’s second-floor bedroom, according to Assistant Fire Chief Thomas Slepski. Its cause remains under investigation, according to a Tinley Park Fire Department news release.

At last check, village officials did not know the woman’s name, according to village spokesman Jason Freeman, but did describe her as “elderly.” Another woman in the next door condo unit was successfully evacuated from the second floor, officials said, but she sustained no injuries.

A neighbor who lived downstairs from the woman told the Tribune he called 911 after a landscaper rang the doorbell because he saw smoke filtering through the upstairs window.

The landscaper, Luis Calderon with Nogas Landscaping, said he was passing by and saw the smoke this morning. He informed a different homeowner, who he said rang the doorbell. The woman who lived upstairs didn’t answer, he said.

Village officials said this afternoon that the woman died at the scene.
