Unattended cooking fire extinguished by sprinkler system at Oasis Grand Destinations Resort (Mesquite, NV)
Two people were transported to Mesa View for evaluation of smoke inhalation after an unattended pot with oil and water in it caught fire Saturday evening at the Oasis Grand Destinations Resort. The entry team reported that the fire was out and that multiple sprinkler heads had been activated. The automatic sprinklers extinguished the fire and limited the fire damage to the stove top and some cabinets immediately above the stove. Upon searching the unit, firefighters discovered a 47 year old male face down and unconscious in the bedroom. It is believed that he had an underlying medical condition which prevented him from responding to the fire and evacuating from the building. His 8 year old son was also transported to Mesa View as a precaution in stable condition.
