An elderly woman had to be rescued from her ground floor flat in Plane Tree Way, Woodstock, last night after a fire broke out in the kitchen.
A spokesman for Oxfordshire fire and rescue service said a microwave caught fire at about 9pm.
The OAP was given oxygen at the scene but was not seriously injured.
