People are careful when cooking with a stove. But sometimes accidents happen. For example, oil can spill onto the stove. The oil can catch on fire. Putting water on an oil fire makes it worse. Instead, people should turn off the stove and cover the pan with a lid. They should call 9-1-1 if the fire gets too big.
