Firefighters from Keighley were called to the fire at 11.30pm last Thursday. Mr Croft had removed the burning grill pan from a house in Hainworth Wood Road.

Station officer Andy Newman says: "The fire was caused by a build-up of fat in the grill pan which ignited. It is important that people make sure their grill pans are cleaned properly and have smoke detectors fitted."
