[News Clip: Stork Gets Blamed for Residence Fire]

Video footage from the WBAP-TV station in Fort Worth, Texas to accompany a news story about how after hearing the announcement that her great-grandchild was being born, J.F. Franken, was distracted long enough for her stove to catch fire. When she tried to pull the fan a nearby curtain caught the flame and the whole house went up as well. Franken escaped safely and after a reported loss of $1,200-1,500 she was still happy to see her new great-grandson.
