Man rescued after neighbour spots fire in his Herne Bay home
A terrified neighbour raised the alarm when a fire broke out in
a Herne Bay house as a man slept inside.
The Central Parade resident called Kent Fire and Rescue
(KFRS) at around 3.45am Sunday, after she heard a smoke alarm
sounding at the property next door and saw smoke through the
letterbox.
Firefighters from Herne Bay rescued a 35-year-old occupant who
was not thought to be badly injured.
A KFRS spokesperson said the blaze was caused by food left on a
hob which then caught fire.
