Thanks to the homeowner's quick thinking, the fire was extinguished before we arrived and was contained to the oven.
Our crews checked the surrounding area to ensure the fire hadn't spread further. Chief Bosi reminds everyone: "Before attempting to extinguish any fire, always dial 9-1-1, evacuate other occupants, and ensure you have a clear exit path."
This incident is a great reminder of the importance of fire safety. Make sure your home has working smoke detectors and that everyone in your household knows what to do in case of a fire.
