Smoke alarm warns of kitchen fire


A SMOKE alarm woke a household after their kitchen caught fire.

The people living in the house in Sydney Road, Abbey Wood, managed to get out before phoning 999 at around 11pm yesterday (September 9).

It is thought that the fire was probably started by some cooking which had been left on the stove.

Firefighters from Erith wearing breathing apparatus took around an hour to deal with the incident.
