Tulsa, OK – The Tulsa Fire Department says an elderly woman was killed in an early morning Tulsa house fire. The blaze was reported in the 2200-block of South Gary. Authorities say the fire broke out about five this morning.

Investigators say the home was cluttered and that made the fire more difficult to extinguish.

It appears the fire was started by faulty electrical wiring.
