Two house fires in Atlanta on Sunday are being investigated, including one that involved the rescue of a woman and another that resulted in the detainment of a woman, according to Channel 2 Action News.
The causes of both fires remain undetermined.
Atlanta Fire Rescue responded shortly after 10 a.m. to a fire on Lois Place, Channel 2 reported. A woman was rescued from the home and rushed to Grady Memorial Hospital. Her condition was not released.
About nine hours later, firefighters responded to another house fire on Donnelly Avenue and removed one person, according to Channel 2. Police said the woman was initially detained, then confirmed she had been arrested Monday night on an outstanding warrant out of Clayton County.
The woman was identified as 34-year-old Precious Montgomery, police told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. She is also charged with obstruction of firefighters and giving a false name. Montgomery was booked into the Fulton County Jail, where she is being held for transfer to Clayton, jail records show.
