CARLTON – A kitchen fire in a mobile home resulted in extensive water and smoke damage to a mobile home owned by Terry Brooks at 14975 Roosevelt Highway.
Brooks said she moved a gas stove and was cleaning around it when she noticed flames. She promptly left and was able to get her dog “Raisin” out of the house. Raisin is a Pembroke Welsch Corgi. Her cat also scampered safely out of the home.
Brooks said she expects she will stay with her son in the short-term.
Andrew Niederhofer, Carlton’s assistant fire chief, said the fire was limited to the kitchen but there is smoke and water damage in the structure.
Firefighters were dispatched to the site at 3:06 p.m. Carlton was joined by Kendall, Albion and Medina firefighters in responding to the call.
