An elderly Omaha woman is in the hospital with serious injuries after she was pulled from her burning home on Thursday.
6 News reports her home near 41st and Mason filled with so much smoke her live-in son couldn't find her in the house.
At about 11:20 a.m. the woman's son, who lives in the basement of the home, said he noticed smoke in the house and went upstairs to look for his mother. When he couldn't find her because it was too smokey, he said he went outside and called 9-1-1.
Omaha Firefighters found the woman on the floor in the bedroom. They pulled her out and rushed her to the hospital with serious injuries.
Most of the damage was to the living room. Two dogs were also in the home but only one managed to escape the fire.
