Cooking Fire Sends Woman To Local Hopsital

Chief Warren said firefighters with Quint 19 arrived on the scene and quickly extinguished the fire, containing the fire damage to the kitchen area. The rest of the apartment unit, and the unit next door, sustained moderate smoke damage. The cause of the fire will be ruled accidental, from food being left unattended on the stove. Chief Willmore said the outcome could have been even worse, because no working smoke alarms were found in the residence.
