Life Imitates Art - Fish Starts Blaze

was just reading my son a Richard Scary story about an inept firefighter who burns down his own fire station, now this story of a fish fry burning down a fire station:

Pine Bluff (AP) - Firefighters at a Pine Bluff station left fish frying on a stove when they rushed out to answer a call. The result is that the kitchen at Fire Station Number Seven was gutted by the fire that resulted Wednesday evening.

A resident noticed smoke coming from the firehouse and tried to put out the blaze with a fire extinguisher. But the flames were too great and the man called 911. The firefighters returned to their own station to fight the fire. Pine Bluff Fire Chief David Parsley says the blaze will be investigated.
