Tea light fire


Published on Saturday 4 February 2012 07:30

A TEA light left burning on a bath caused a fire in Soothill.

Batley and Morley firefighters were called to a home in Soothill Lane at 7.10am on Friday.

Crew manager Soren Johnston said the candle, which was on a glass base, was lit on Thursday night, and burned through the bath while the homeowner was asleep. The house’s smoke detector didn’t go off as the door was closed.
