FIREFIGHTERS were called to a Farnworth flat after a pan of food caught fire.
The occupant of the first floor flat on Lightwood Close was alerted by his fire alarm and fled into the street. He then attempted to fight the fire using an extinguisher. Firefighters used a special ventilator to clear the smoke.
