The lady in the picture had gone to sleep and forgotten to put out the fire place (totally not my fault....) and it just so happened that shortly after the fire from the fireplace spread outwards the house was also getting burgled. Though the burgler was to terrified from the fire to steal anything, so upon discovering the fire all he could do was panic, before running away like a coward - without stealing anything. Lucky in an unlucky situation I guess.
It wasn’t great that that there was both a fire that broke out, and that a burglar also visited the home at the same time! 🙁The fire would have been quite scary for her! But as you said, the fire did cause the burglar to panic and leave without stealing anything so it did turn out okay and best in the end.
