Vanessa Ingram, 61, was sound asleep when she heard a pounding on her door. The noise jolted her awake. As Ingram went to answer, she began to smell the smoke.

The apartment management did not return a message requesting comment. Residents including Ingram returned to the charred end unit to collect whatever belongings survived the fire.
