French fry fire puts family in the cold

PALMER, Mass. (WWLP) - A fast-food fire forced two local families out into the cold on Thursday night.

At about 6:30pm a fire broke out in a two family home on 3 Spring Street in the Bondsville section of Palmer.

Bondsville Fire Chief Schott Tustafson told 22News that a family was cooking french fires when the oil got too hot and the cabinets caught fire.

Chief Tustafson says the fire fighters battled the blaze quickly, putting out the flames in less than ten minutes.

The two families who live in the home will be staying with friends.

No one was injured.
