At about 6.15pm on Saturday 24th Sept, Warragul Fire Brigade responded to a report of a stove fire at a house in Montrose St Warragul.
On arrival, fire fighters found a pot of oil on the stove was on fire. The home owner had managed to partially smother the fire, preventing it from spreading further.
Crews removed the oil pot and isolated the stove while the home owner was treated for suspected smoke inhalation and shock by fire fighters.
