A WOMAN and her teenage daughter had to leave their home after a grill pan caught fire last night.

The teenager had been cooking tea at her home in Brownroyd Avenue, Rawthorpe, and accidentally left the pan on the grill which set fire to the cooker.

Firefighters from Huddersfield tackled the fire at around 7.55pm.

The fire was confined to the kitchen which was badly damaged by smoke from the blaze.
