According to the woman, at the time the fire broke out, she was at home with her five grandchildren. She was about to perform her prayer when she noticed that the refrigerator started to smoke and quickly ignited. In a hurry, along with one of her granddaughters (a 9th-10th grade student), she went to the neighbors for help. Unfortunately, within minutes, the fire engulfed the entire house, and it was no longer possible to return to save the other children.
