Reporter Emma Gallegos tells the re-write desk that Wanda Dunn, 53, passed out her clothes to neighbors before taking her life and burning her house down. Dunn was reportedly facing foreclosure.

Here’s the top of our current story:

A Pasadena woman distraught over the pending foreclosure of her home may have lit her house on fire and killed herself, police said.

Neighbors reported smoke coming from a home in the 1000 block of North Wilson Avenue shortly before 5 a.m. Monday morning. Firefighters arrived and found Wanda Dunn, 53, in her bed suffering from a gunshot wound.

“Some of the neighbors said she was going to be evicted this weekend,” said Lt. John Dewar, the detective investigating the case. “We’re looking at this as possibly a reason this tragedy occurred.”
