Topeka (WIBW) - Topeka Fire investigators say careless smoking is to blame for a fire at a home Wednesday morning.
Crews were called at 9:45 am to a home at 617 NE Ohio St.
Linda Munoz says she was taking a nap and was awakened by a warm feeling on her arm. She discovered the mattress she was lying on in flames.
Munoz says she thought opening her second-floor bedroom door would make it worse, so she climbed out the window to the porch roof. That's where firefighters found her and lifted her to safety.
Damage is estimated at $15,000. Munoz says the bedroom is ruined, but she says God was looking out for her and kept her from being injured.

Ronald....how would you know if she has a reputation for intentional harm? Tom, I'm sure you've done some pretty idiotic things too. You know what they say: Hurting people hurt people. I'm just glad my mother wasn't hurt. God was with her!
