Two women, one of them 90 years old, escaped a fire that destroyed a mobile home Tuesday morning in central Fresno.
The fire was reported about 9 a.m. on the 2700 block of West Ashlan Avenue.
Fresno Fire Department spokesman Gary Eberhard said two roofers working nearby heard the fire break out.
They helped get the 90-year-old and her companion, whose age was not provided, out of the home.
Firefighters arrived and took on the blaze, but the home, valued at $50,000, was destroyed. An additional $10,000 in contents were lost.
