COOKING left unattended caused a fire in the kitchen of a Hatfield flat.
Firefighters were called to Redhall Close at 2.20pm on January 17, after neighbours heard the smoke alarm going off.
Watch commander Steve Duncan said firefighters had to force entry to the flat, as no-one was in. They put out the flames and used a fan to ventilate the property, which was smoke-damaged.
Mr Duncan issued a warning to residents not to go out and leave food cooking on the stove.
“Don’t leave cooking unattended,” he said.
