Regina Santos-Aviles, a married mother of one, died on Sunday morning at the age of 35 after her mother reportedly found her on fire and called the police.
Santos-Aviles’s mother, Nora Ann Gonzales, told the San Antonio Express News she drove to her daughter’s house and found her outside. She said her daughter was still conscious when emergency services arrived.
“The last thing she said is, ‘I don’t want to die,’” her mother told the newspaper. “And they told her, ‘We will do our best to make sure we get you taken care of.’”
Uvalde Volunteer Fire Department Chief Mario Rangel said that firefighters received a call on Saturday night about an individual on fire.
The fire risk had subsided, however, and the call was canceled. Four firefighters still responded, as Santos-Aviles’s house was so close to the station.
“When we arrived, we learned of a fire behind the residence that had been put out with a fire extinguisher,” Rangel said. “At the same time, EMS (emergency medical services) personnel were attending to a female who had suffered burns. She was transported by EMS and, at some point, flown to a San Antonio hospital.”
