Missing smoke detectors and some escape routes full of stuff: safety is hard to find in old porch flats

When a fire breaks out on the first floor of Wendy Baum’s porch apartment, the entire stairwell is filled with thick black smoke in no time. Wendy doesn’t know what to do and panics completely. She wants to get down, away from the fire and preferably as soon as possible. She quickly finds her three-year-old daughter, picks her up and runs to the door. A wrong decision that could very easily have been fatal.
