A female who lives in Niagara Falls New York is grateful that after she reported to the 911 dispatcher that a fire that began around 2:50 am on Wednesday morning on March 8 started on the first floor came close to having her either pass away or suffer serious injuries due to the fire. The Niagara Falls Fire Department firefighters were able to rescue the female whose name was not released was rescued by the firefighters by getting her out of danger by getting her out of the first floor window by firefighters and police officers. The fire was so intense since the fire was in the enclosed entrance way which required assistance from other firetrucks to put out the fire. The damage to the apartment was in the outside as well as the first floor and the entrance. The investigation by the authorities revealed that the cause of the fire may have started when a male person who was smoking a cigarette on the first floor and likely did not get rid of the cigarette properly.

If the house is repairable the owners will probably not allow smoking in their home after this.

I am sure that the owners of the apartment will ban smoking in their building after this incident.

@Deepizzaguy I would think so, smoking is a bad habit.

@Adie04 That is true since there have been reports on television that people and animals die in house fires because they are trapped inside of a burning building without anyone to assist them get out.

@Deepizzaguy I ever seen one case where this owner leave the dogs behind to save himself from flood. Thankfully SAR came and manage to save these dogs. What an irresponsible owner

People who smoke and are not careful cause so much damage. This woman could have been killed.

What an irresponsible person. He could have killed the woman. And maybe more if it wasn't for those firefighters
