FIREFIGHTERS were called to three blazes within 24 hours on Tuesday (July 5) caused by cooking being left unattended.
The fire service have issued advice to residents following the three incidents which included a fire in Droitwich at 7.40pm on Hunters Way.
The blaze was deemed an accident and fire officials believe it was caused by a build up of fat in the cooker which had caught alight.
Station Commander Alan Haley from the Community Risk Department said: “Half of all accidental fires start in the kitchen so we urge people to take extra care when cooking.
“This month is also Fire Kills cooking safety month, which is a timely reminder to stay safe in the kitchen.”
