Sunday marks the start of Fire Prevention Week across the country.
This year's theme is ``Look. Listen. Learn. Be aware - fire can happen anywhere.''
Fire officials are encouraging everyone to look for potential fire hazards around their homes, listen for smoke alarms in an emergency and learn two ways out of every room.
