Two injured in kitchen blaze
TWO women have been taken to hospital after a fire broke out in a flat in Craigmillar in the early hours of today.
The fire started in the Craigmillar Court block of flats on Craigmillar Castle Gardens at around 4.30am in a pan of food.
It had been extinguished before firefighters arrived. Two women, including a 32-years-old who had difficulty breathing, were taken to the Royal Infirmary suffering from smoke inhalation.

The occupant received oxygen at the scene and was taken to the ERI to be checked over.
