One resident was transported from the scene by BMEMS to T. J. Samson Hospital for treatment. Fire damage was limited to the kitchen area. Heat and smoke damage could be seen throughout the rest of the apartment.
The resident of the apartment stated that she was trying to cook some french fries, when the grease overheated and caught on fire. The woman said she then tried to put out the fire.
Firefighters were on the scene around an hour and were assisted by the Barren Metcalfe EMS and the Glasgow Police Department. The apartment was being rented by Mary Sloof.
