A woman was seriously injured in an overnight fire involving three houses that displaced about four others in the Chicago Lawn neighborhood, officials said.

Shortly after 1 a.m., officers and firefighters responded to a call of a fire involving three residential houses in the 6300 block of South Oakley Avenue. Firefighters were extinguishing the fires where a woman was taken in serious condition to UChicago Medicine, officials said.

At least four adults were displaced due to the fires, officials said.

The fire department and police are investigating the cause of the fires. Earlier Wednesday night, a 75-year-old woman was killed in a house fire in the same neighborhood.
