SEATTLE - A woman is in critical condition after a house fire in Seattle's Wallingford neighborhood overnight.

The Seattle Fire Department responded after 1 a.m. Wednesday to reports of a fire involving a tree and a two-story home off Sunnyside Avenue North.
When crews arrived, there was a fire at the front of the home with electrical wires down on the north side.
