An overnight fire at a condominium complex killed a 57-year-old woman in Gunbarrel. Neighbors helped two women get out of the burning building, but one of them collapsed a short while later.
Emergency crews immediately started trying to resuscitate the 57 year old, but they were not successful. Investigators say a 19-year-old family member survived.
No one else was hurt. Red Cross volunteers responded to help eight people who are displaced.
