A woman was killed in a house fire in San Antonio Friday morning.

The blaze was fanned by 20 mph winds, KENS 5 reported.

Despite the fierce flames, firefighters went into the home and pulled the victim out. She died at the hospital.

Neighbors said the house had been boarded up. So, the woman may have gone inside to escape the chilly weather.
