Turkey Fryer Fire Destroys $4M Home

Despite reminders never to use turkey fryers indoors, sometimes the message just doesn’t hit home. In this case, it did… literally. A Thanksgiving tragedy struck in Weston, where a $4 million mansion was destroyed in a fire caused by a turkey fryer mishap in the garage. The blaze erupted Thursday afternoon, quickly spreading through the home. Forty people were inside but luckily, all escaped unharmed. Crews fought the flames for over 16 hours before declaring the home a total loss.
