ORIGINAL STORY 2/28/13 - An Auburn, Ritchie County resident was life-flighted to a Pittsburgh burn center following an explosion and fire at her residence about 1 a.m. Tuesday.
Sources said Etta Spencer, in her 50s, suffered critical burns.
Neighbors said Spencer got out of her house following what was reported to be a propane tank explosion, which caught the house on fire.
She reportedly went back into the residence believing her son was in the structure. The son was at a neighbors house.
Spencer lived in a converted one-room school building behind the Auburn Post Office, a structure that has been described as the last one-room school in West Virginia.
