Killeen: Kitchen fire causes some damage

A kitchen fire caused some damage early Thursday afternoon at a home in the 6400 block of Manganite Road in Killeen.

Neighbors said they saw flames before the first fire crews arrived.

The homeowner was cooking and left a pot of grease on the stove to step outside to talk to a contractor, officials said.

The grease evidently ignited.

Fire damage was contained to the kitchen.

No one was hurt.
