FIRE broke out in a house after two people fell asleep leaving a pan of fat on a cooker.
One man attempted to put the pan fire out and had to be given oxygen by Bolton Central firefighters when they arrived at the house in Bradford Street at about midnight. He declined hospital treatment.
There was fire damage to the extractor fan and smoke damage to two other rooms.
