A laundry mistake almost turned into a dangerous fire at a Eureka, Calif., nursing facility, according to an article on the KIEM TV website.
Humboldt Bay Fire crews were alerted of a fire in the laundry room at the Granada Rehabilitation and Wellness Center when cleaning rags ignited after being removed from the dryer too soon without cooling off.
The fire sprinkler helped in initial containment, as patients evacuated and Humboldt Bay Fire and an Arcata Fire unit headed to the scene. There was some damage, but no injuries reported.
Humboldt Bay Fire said fabrics needed to go through the cool down phase in the dryer before they are put into piles.
