Neighbors Rescue Elderly Woman From Burning House

Neighbors help save elderly woman from house fire

My photographer and I drove all the way to Lakeland (Memphis suburb) for a story we hoped to turn for 10:00.  But the woman we aimed to interview wasn't home.  Fortunately, another photographer had been dispatched to a house fire around the same time.  He got great interviews from neighbors.. Including those who helped save an elderly woman from the burning house.  And Chopper 5 got great video of the house going up in flames.  So, I put these elements together for a story.  We went live from the neighborhood..
