A 39-year-old woman died after rushing into her burning house to save the family dog and cat Wednesday morning, officials said.
Aerial footage showed a home on the 2700 block of June Avenue in Bensalem, Pennsylvania, engulfed in flames as firefighters attempted to subdue the blaze.
They found two pets dead inside the home, but it is unclear if it was the same animal Tabetha Oakes Rutecki attempted to save. One dog survived, officials said.
