Ottawa firefighters quickly tackle kitchen fire near Uplands Drive

By CityNews Ottawa

Firefighters worked quickly to extinguish flames from a kitchen fire in the Hunt Club neighbourhood, Saturday afternoon.

Around 4:57 p.m., Ottawa Fire Services (OFS) responded to Gillespie Crescent, near Uplands Drive, and began a fast attack on the home's kitchen fire. Two searches of the entire home were completed to ensure no one was inside. But during the search, firefighters discovered that the floor in one of the top level bedrooms was compromised. 

Crews managed to stop the fire before it could spread to the adjoining homes.

The fire was under control at 5:43 p.m.  An Ottawa fire investigator was called to the scene.
