An 89-year-old woman died Wednesday after her clothes caught fire as she attempted to light her stove's pilot at her Bridgeport home.
Consuelo Gandara, of the 400 block of West 31st, suffered burns on more than 90 percent of her body when her nightclothes caught fire, officials said. The fire did not spread, and no one else was injured, officials said.
Gandara was pronounced dead at the University of Chicago Medical Center, the medical examiner's office said.
