Fire: Rental Insurance

(download)

If you are a renter, don't hesitate to have a renter's insurance policy. Fortunately, the renter at this apartment did.

Also, if you have a stovetop fire, the recommended way to extinguish it (I'd rather you get out and call the FD) is to put a lid or bigger pan or cookie sheet over the top of it. Use the lid as a shield as you approach the burning pot or skillet. Tilt it into place and cover the pot. Turn off the heat. DON'T move the pot or skillet. Leave it there to completely cool.

Also, Ohio, as in many states, has a law that requires you to report fires like these. Best not to take chances.
