First pic of woman in blazing flat jump

'Traumatised' ... Monika Konczyk

THIS is the first picture of the brave woman who jumped out of her burning flat as an inferno raged in a furniture store just metres away.

Monika Konczyk, 32, was said to be "traumatised" last night after narrowly escaping with her life when she jumped 14ft from a first-floor window into the outstretched arms of riot cops.

Monika had stayed at home after her sister Beata Mecaj told her not to go out as looters roamed London on Monday night.

But after Monika got ready for bed, yobs torched the nearby House of Reeves furniture store — leaving her trapped when the flames spread to her block of flats.

Terrified residents jump from buildings

Terrified residents in London fled for their lives as hate-filled rioters set their district ablaze.

A huge fireball engulfed a historic furniture shop in Croydon, South London, as hundreds of thugs went to war with police.

Firefighters were forced to let the shop burn so they could tackle countless other blazes across the borough.

Girls jump into river to test boy's love, but boy runs away!

Two teenagers, who admired the same person, jumped into a river in an attempt to test the boy's feelings.

The classmates from a secondary school in Guangan city of Sichuan province believed that the boy would save the person he loved first.

But unexpectedly, the boy Li Xiongzheng – also their classmate - ran away.

Zhang Feng, 14, and Jiang Yun, 16, were on holiday after finishing their junior high school examination.

On Thursday, the girls bumped into each other at the riverbank and had a chat.

And at this juncture, Li showed up.

The girls immediately confronted Li and asked him to choose between them. The boy remained silent.

Zhang Feng then came up with an idea. She suggested that both of them should jump into the river to find out who Li would save first.

Jiang Yun agreed and seconds later, both of them were in the Lingxi river.

Passers-by and two policemen on their rounds, who saw the girls struggling in the water, rescued them.

The boy, who was in fear, ran away.

Realising their mistake, the girls apologised and promised the cops not to repeat the act.
