THREE people fled a house in Bradford after a pan caught fire on the hob.

Fire crews from Shipley and Fairweather Green stations were called to a detached property on Hilltop Cottages, Daisy Hill, at about 8pm on Wednesday. The blaze started when some grease in an unattended pan ignited, said a fire service spokesman. There was fire damage to the cooker and smoke blackening to walls in the kitchen. No-one was injured, added the spokesman.
