Three people and a dog were rescued from a burning hotel in Naperville Friday afternoon. The Naperville Fire Department says it happened in the 1800 block of W. Diehl Road at around 12:30.

Two children were rescued with a ladder from a second story window. The mother of the two children was able to walk out through the hotel's interior stairs with a dog. The mother was taken to a hospital with minor injuries. One firefighter was also checked out for a minor injury but refused transport to a hospital.

The fire was coming from an exterior AC unit and spread to an interior hallway which was extinguishing by firefighters. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
