A California widow and mother of five died last week after running into her burning house to rescue four of her children. The mom rushed into the house to rescue her four children, aged 7 to 18, who were trapped upstairs. The children managed to escape the blaze by breaking a window and jumping to safety, according to KFSN-TV. They suffered from injuries from smoke inhalation and were treated at a local hospital, the Kern County Fire Department said. When firefighters arrived at the scene, they attempted to rescue Stratton from the fire but found her dead inside the home.
