Firefighters have issued a cooking safety reminder following a flat fire on Culvert Road in Battersea.
A flat on the seventh floor of a 21-storey block was damaged by the fire. Two people left the affected flat before the Brigade arrived and they were treated at the scene for smoke inhalation.
The Brigade's fire investigators believe the fire was accidental and caused by unattended cooking.
Station Commander Tom Conlon said: “Fires are more likely to start in the kitchen than any other room in the home.
"Cooking should never be left unattended on the hob or grill - if you have to leave the kitchen, turn off the heat.”
The Brigade was called at 2042 and the fire was under control by 2147. Four fire engines and around 25 firefighters from Battersea, Wandsworth, Fulham and Lambeth fire stations were at the scene.
