Unattened Pot Blamed For Blaze

The London Fire Department is again reminding people to keep an eye on the food they are cooking after a blaze in the SoHo neighbourhood on Tuesday.

Fire crews were called to 177 Clarence St. around 6:30am, where fire had broken out in one of the units of a duplex.

Crews arrived to find smoke billowing out of the second floor, but they were able to douse the flames quickly.

Fire officials believe a pot of grease left unattended on a stove is to blame for the fire.

Luckily, there were no injuries.

Damage is estimated at $125,000.
