FIREFIGHTERS smashed their way into a first floor flat in Radcliffe today after the occupant went to work leaving a pan heating on the cooker.
The smoke from the hot fat triggered an alarm at 6.20am which alerted residents living near the Eton Hill Road apartment.
The flat was heavily smoke-logged although the pan had not burst into flames.
