Elderly woman rushed to hospital after house fire at her Shipley home
An elderly woman was taken to hospital suffering from smoke inhalation after a burnt out pan filled her Shipley house with smoke.
A spokesperson said the pan had been left unattended on a cooker and had burnt dry, filling the house with smoke.
An ambulance was called to take her to hospital while fire crews from Bingley and Shipley used a high powered fan to clear the house, on Helen Street, Saltaire, of smoke.
The incident happened just before 6.15pm last night (Sunday).
