UNATTENDED cooking has started fires in three separate homes across Croydon this weekend.
No-one was injured in any of the fires, but all caused significant damage to kitchens.
On Saturday at around 4.30pm, Croydon fire brigade was called to a kitchen fire in Cherry Tree Green, Sanderstead.
A spokesman for Croydon's blue watch said: "It was caused by something left in the oven.
"It was reported by a neighbour who heard the smoke alarm and called the fire brigade.
"The owner turned up as we were there."
On Saturday at around 5pm, Woodside fire brigade was called to a kitchen fire in Charnwood Road, Selhurst.
A spokesman for Woodside's blue watch said: "They had left the cooking and came back and a pan had set alight."
And on Sunday at around 1.50pm, New Addington's fire brigade was called to a kitchen fire in Headley Drive.
A spokesman for New Addington's green watch said: "It was some cooking that they left unattended and it just caught fire.
"The next-door neighbour saw smoke coming out and they went over and just put it out.
"It mainly affected the kitchen area."
