Excerpts from the ChicagoSunTimes.com:

At about 4 a.m. on Saturday, firefighters were called to the 10500 block of South Forest Avenue for a fire on the second floor of the home. A 71-year woman was found unresponsive and taken to Roseland Community Hospital, where she was pronounced dead. She was identified as Patricia Farmer by the Cook County medical examiner’s office.

 A 77-year-old man that was also in the house was listed in critical condition at the same hospital. In addition, a firefighter was taken to Little Company of Mary Hospital with a knee injury after a fall, and was listed in good condition.
