FIREFIGHTERS were called out to a kitchen fire at a property in Neston last night.

Three crews, two from Ellesmere Port and one from Powey Lane, attended the incident on Dunstan Lane at 7.51pm and discovered a fire on the kitchen table had already been put out by the occupants.

Firefighters used a large fan to clear the smoke from the property and were at the scene for about one and a half hours.

One person was treated by paramedics at the scene for smoke inhalation.
