Headline: "Flaming Eggs Tossed On Dead Christmas Tree Start Fire"
According to fire investigators, a Colorado woman was cooking eggs on the stove and turned around to get seasonings. When she turned back around, she found the pan on fire.
The quick-thinking woman grabbed the flaming pan and threw it on the back deck. Unfortunately, it landed near the dried Christmas tree from last December. The blaze quickly spread as the tree went up in flames.
The woman told fire investigators she sent the family dog downstairs to get her 3-year-old daughter. The dog nudged the child up the basement stairs to safety, she said.
