Woman not charged in Creedmoor apartment fire

A resident of the Granville Oaks Apartments complex, on Watershed Way, was using an oxygen tank for medical reasons and lit a cigarette, sparking the March 4 fire, police said.

The woman, whose name hasn't been released, suffered facial burns and spent a couple of days at the North Carolina Jaycee Burn Center at UNC Hospitals in Chapel Hill.

The fire damaged much of the upper floor of one building at the apartment complex. Eight families were displaced, but officials said six of them moved into other apartments in the complex.
