OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Authorities say two residents and four firefighters were injured while crews battled a house fire in northwest Oklahoma City.

Oklahoma City television station KWTV reports the four firefighters were injured when they fell off a ladder while trying to rescue a woman from a second-story window early Friday. Authorities say two of those firefighters were taken to a hospital and the two others were treated at the scene.

The woman was taken to a hospital and authorities say her injuries are life-threatening. Authorities say a man in the house jumped from the building to escape the blaze and was also hurt.
