A KITCHEN was destroyed by fire in Deane yesterday.
The fire at the first floor flat in Blackshaw Lane started after a 17-year-old youth started cooking chips, but forgot he had left the pan on. He tried to extinguish the blaze with a dry towel which also burst into flames.
He declined hospital treatment following the fire which happened at 2pm.
