Oil Fire in The Kitchen

Occurred on June 13, 2023 / Brookland, Arkansas, USA

: "While I was working my 13 y.o daughter was home getting ready to bake a cake. She went to the storage shed to get her cake mixer. While outside, our golden retriever placed his paw on the stove (touchpad) to get a sponge that he chewed up. This turned the stove on, heating the oil on the stove. When my daughter came into the house with her blender, she saw the smoke and acted immediately, running water on the grease that ignited. This caused a massive grease fire. The ceiling was slightly charred, and paper towels and a sponge caught fire. Home monitoring dispatched fire department due to the fire alarms. The fire department was canceled due to the situation being under control. No one was hurt in any way and no major damage resulted (except maybe the paper towels.)"
