Firefighters were called to a smell of burning at a York flat last night (Monday).
They went to the property on Bishopthorpe Road at 11.11pm.
A North Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Service spokesperson said: “Crews gained entry to the property from a rear window which was left open to find the flat smoke logged and the occupant inside.
“The smoke was caused by burnt food inside the oven and the occupant suffered slight smoke inhalation but did not require medical attention.
“Crews used a positive pressure ventilation fan to clear the property of smoke and advice was given to the occupant.”
