When she went downstairs, she found the kitchen filled with smoke and a pot of cooking oil burning on the stovetop. In a press release from Maine Department of Public Safety, they explained that the girl reportedly attempted to carry the burning pot to the kitchen sink. As she moved it, the oil flared up, causing severe burns to her legs and torso. The State Fire Marshal’s Office is reminding residents never to use water on a grease fire, as it can cause burning oil to spread or explode outward. People should also avoid trying to move a burning pan because of the risk of spilling hot oil.
