get out and stay out......dont go back in for your pet gold fish or your teddy boo-boo.......and dont try to be a hero, thats my job. if you dont have smoke detectors get at least 2. if you have an extingusher thats a plus, but note if the fire is bigger then a trash can, the extinguish wont help, your time is better spent calling 911....we are a paid dept here and have a 3 to 5 minute response time.....a fire doubles in size every minute.....be smart get you and your family out if you can...practice fire saftey in the home....dont leave a pot cooking unattended...dont abuse extension cords...and dont play with matches.......
