According to Lt. Mindy Talmadge, Ruby Smith died of burn injuries in the blaze, reported at a three-story, single-family home in the 1300 block of Revere Avenue at about 2 p.m.
The San Francisco medical examiner's office has not issued a final report on the cause of Smith's death, which could take weeks.
Damage to the home was minor, Talmadge said.

Nice plaza, but I wonder if it will be closed to the public when it rains. That polished stone syre looks like it might be a wee bit slippery when wet.
