Pan of hot dogs sparks kitchen fire on Scarborough's Northway

A concerned neighbour called North Yorkshire Fire & Rescue after they had spotted smoke coming from a property on Northway.

Crews from Scarborough attended and on arrival, found a man inside the property.

The cause of the smoke was a fire to a pan of hot dogs which had been left unattended after the occupant fell asleep.

The crew ventilated the premises, checked the area using a thermal imaging camera and gave advice to the man.
