Original Toronto Star caption: Escaped fire: Ann Meurrens and her daughter; Kim; were among several tenants who fled a fourth-floor fire - which started in a chesterfield - in a Blake St. high-rise in the Jones Ave.- Gerrard St. E. area yesterday. Two children; including a 2-week-old baby; were taken to hospital and treated for minor smoke inhalation. Two teenage girls and a boy; trapped in an elevator next to the burning apartment; were rescued by firefighters.
