VIDEO: A dog was rescued by Chicago firefighters from an apartment in Chatham early Wednesday morning. The fire broke out in a unit near Ellis Avenue and 80th Street overnight. Fire crews were seen at the scene working to extinguish the fires and helping a dog get outside through a window. CBS News Chicago spoke to the man whose apartment caught fire, who said he had just come home from work at the time. “Luckily I was up, because I heard the smoke detectors and I opened the door, I went to the door, and I felt heat,” said Joseph Thompson.
