Fish fights flames, avoids fry, saves school

(01-31) 08:08 PST EAGAN, Minn. (AP) --
A smoke alarm summoned firefighters to a school in the middle of the night, but
when they arrived the flames already had been put out. Dory took care of it.
Dory is a fish, a Betta kept in a vase on a desk in a third-grade classroom at
Trinity Lone Oak Lutheran School.
A forgotten candle started a small fire on the desk on Jan. 24, setting off the
smoke alarm and shattering the fish bowl, spilling enough water to put out the
flames.
Firefighters found a few embers still glowing on the desk -- and Dory still
alive in a puddle.
"It was certainly looking distinctly unhappy," firefighter Al Taylor said of
the little fish.
