ACT Fire & Rescue have extinguished a fire in a third floor unit in Strathgordon Court, Lyons.

The owners were not home at the time.

Neighbours were alerted to the fire by a smoke alarm sounding and the smell of smoke.

Neighbours contacted ACT Fire & Rescue by Triple Zero (000) who responded with two pumpers, a Breathing Apparatus Support Vehicle, the Hazardous Materials Unit and one Commander.

The fire was contained to the stovetop. ACT Fire & Rescue are currently ventilating the unit and will depart the scene shortly.

ACT Fire & Rescue remind the community “don’t stop looking while you’re cooking”.

Lol @ owner. More like tenant scum.

I am tired of people like you who look down on public housing tenants, Comic and gamer nerd. Most of us who live here in this area are really nice people. It is only a minority that give the rest of us a bad name. I agree 100% with flossie, the person in question is a nice person. He is just a bit forgetful at times. At least there are plenty of people here to help and call 000 in an emergency. What about where you live Comic and gamer nerd?

@ Comic_and_Gamer_Nerd – Wow, judgemental much?

I would be barely fascinated to understand the logic train that brought you to that particular station, other than the presumed knowledge that Strathgordon Court is public housing.

He’s very light on rail…

Actually he is a lovely bloke. Kind and gentle and very sweet. I am glad I met him as art of my animal rescue activities.

They’ll be getting a roast from the neighbours,well done fool!
