London Maisonette Fire - Spaghetti Can

A fire which damaged a north London maisonette was probably caused by a toaster being used to heat a tin of spaghetti. Two men escaped the fire in Upper Holloway, on Monday night, said a spokesperson for London Fire Brigade. It appears that the two men had wedged the toaster on and were cooking a tin of spaghetti on top of it.

Four fire engines and about 20 firefighters attended the blaze.
