Husband dies trying to save wife in Washington house fire, not knowing she'd escaped Don Nolan had called for his wife as their home became engulfed by flames, but didn't get a response so ran back into the burning building in an effort to save her A man has died after running into a burning house in an attempt to rescue his wife who he believed was trapped, but had actually escaped through a window. Don Nolan called for his wife Angie Webb multiple times when their mobile home in Woodinville, Washington, burst into flames at 2am local time on Monday, while the couple slept. Surveillance footage captured the moment Don fled the burning property as the flames continued spreading. He called out for Angie multiple times, but got no response. He then ran back into the property, where he tragically died. Angie's family told FOX 13 that she was asleep in another room when the fire broke out and had managed to escape through a back window. A family member also revealed the couple had tragically lost their cat in the blaze, which spread rapidly and left the entire property gutted. A friend of the couple, Jennifer Hickok, has since launched a GoFundMe page for Nolan and Angie. Hickok said Angie needed "urgent help" after "a devastating fire took the life of her husband, Don, and destroyed everything she had." She said Angie is currently in shock, adding: "On top of this heartbreaking loss, she is now facing the reality of starting over with nothing." "Angie and Don were renting their home, and there was no insurance to help cover what was lost," she added. The funds raised will go towards helping "Angie move into an apartment, furnish it, and begin rebuilding her life from scratch," Hickok said. "Any support can make a real difference as she faces the days ahead without Don and without the home and belongings they shared," she added. Is it not clear what caused the mobile home to catch fire.
