One man is in hospital with burns after a fire in the North side of the city. Thunder Bay Fire and Rescue responded to the blaze yesterday afternoon at around 1 and found a man with burns on Melvin Street. The man suffered the burns when trying to run with a pot of flaming grease outside. Heavy smoke damage was caused in the house. Later in the afternoon crews responded to a second fire that destroyed a kitchen on the South side. Officials say a woman was doing some deep frying that got away from her and consumed her kitchen. No one was hurt in the fire on Limbrick Street.
