Good morning, Kathy.

Good morning in the news this morning.

A woman was killed in a fast-moving house fire in West Deptford, New Jersey, Monday morning.

It broke out at 1.40 a.m. on the 1,500 block of Division Street. Flames were shooting from the roof of the house when firefighters arrived. The fire was so intense, fire crews were forced to evacuate the building. The body of the woman was removed from the house after the fire was extinguished. Officials identified the victim

as 75-year-old Jacqueline Trust, the widow of a retired police officer who died in 2015.

One firefighter was taken out on a stretcher with injuries. A boy was rushed to the hospital

on Sunday after police say he fell out of a second-story window in Philadelphia. That happened

on the 2300 block of Nodden Street

just before 3 p.m. in Center City, the five-year-old boy was transported to an area hospital

where he's currently listed in critical condition. It's believed to be an accident, but one neighbor

watched it all happen and says that after the child fell, he appeared to be stunned and then began

crying before immediately being rushed to the hospital. The neighbor says that she thinks that the child was trying to adjust the window. The screen popped out and the child fell out with it. Police are continuing to investigate this as well. You hear a second story and you're like, oh, that's not that high, but you're a five-year-old kid. I know, yeah. Yeah, it's high. Listen, you only need to fall like six or some odd feet. Yeah. You can really hurt yourself. You could, no matter how, you know, we've had stories where people have fallen back and hit the rays on the sidewalk. Yeah. Rip currents up and down the Jersey shore kept swimmers out of the water on one of the last weekends of the summer. Residents in Ocean City say the beach was being washed away.

Red flags warning swimmers were posted up on the Jersey Shore beaches throughout the weekend.

A high risk, sorry, okay, a high rip current risk.

Yeah, that's like a baby buggy bummers.
