cooking fires

Fire Captain James Walker shares his 24 years of firefighting experience with us to better educate and bring awareness to common causes of home fires. Look, we all get complacent in our own homes and ignore potential fire hazards with everyday bad habits.
Are you cooking dinner on the range and then going outside to watch the kids while the open flame is unattended in the kitchen?
Are you lighting candles next to flammable materials?
Are you falling asleep with a lit cigarette?
