Woman released from the hospital

PIKEVILLE, Ky. (WYMT) - A woman injured in a Pike County fire, that killed her family, has been released from the hospital.

Officials say Tammie Tucker was released from the UK Medical Center Tuesday.

She was rushed there last week with severe burns after a fire at her home in Jonancy.

Investigators think an electric heater likely sparked the fire that killed William Wilfong and his four young children.

They were in the same room as the heater.
