A teenager was unable to save her 5-year-old sister from their burning apartment Tuesday night when roaring flames turned the apartment into an inferno, making it impossible to get to the second-floor where the child was watching television, officials said. East Baton Rouge Parish Coroner Dr . "Beau" Clark identified the girl as Treasure Garner, although her family says her last name is Hadley. She died in the fire at the Cedarwood Apartments on Cedarcrest Avenue . The fire started around 7 p.m. and burned for more than three hours, spreading to more than 10 apartments before firefighters could bring it under control. Treasure's 18-year-old sister had earlier helped the child get ready for bed, then turned on a television on the second floor of the apartment for the little girl to watch while the teen went to the first-floor kitchen to prepare dinner, said Brant Thompson, chief deputy of the State Fire Marshal 's Office, according to accounts gathered by the F...

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - When a new owner bought an indistinct building off Front Avenue in St. Paul’s North End, he had no clue what was in the basement. It didn’t look like much: boxes, other clutter, a water hookup. He started a gym upstairs and thought nothing of it, the Pioneer Press (http://bit.ly/2vxSjJm ) reported. But when it came to gyms, he was squatting on a big piece of history. Decades earlier, a small troop of boxers moved into the vacant space below. It didn’t look like much then, either. “It was all shut off and dark . a cluttered-up mess,” said Gary “Rice Street Skinny” Struss, the light heavyweight. The young men cleared out half of it - pushing all the junk to the rear. One, a plumber, installed a shower in the corner; another had relatives do a little ironwork. In time they had a pair of heavy bags, a speed bag and a small “ring,” about 10 feet by 10; a quarter of regulation size. Nothing more than two-by-fours with plywood on top. “That’s all we had. You know what ...

HICKORY N.C. – A fire started Thursday afternoon at Ridgecrest Apartments, drawing residents out of their apartments to watch as firefighters went to work. Firefighters were called to the apartments on 12th Avenue SE around 3 p.m. Julie Cruz-Mendoza said she was walking her son home from the bus stop when she heard a fire alarm and saw smoke coming out of the second floor windows of Apt. 79. She said she hurried to call 911 and the housing authority. The apartment’s resident, Jamal Wilson, 34, said he was not in the apartment when the fire started. He said a neighbor told him his apartment was on fire and he ran inside and upstairs. He said when he opened a bedroom door on the second floor, smoke poured out, and he was forced to go back outside. No one was injured in the fire. “I’m just shocked,” Wilson said. “I don’t like all this excitement.” Capt. Chad Fisher with the Hickory Fire Department said bedding was damaged in the second floor bedroom and there was minor...
