A local hotel suffered about $10,000 damage on Thursday night when cooking in one of the rooms got out of hand.

Prince George Fire Rescue were called to the North Star Inn and Suites at the corner of Victoria Street and Patricia Boulevard shortly after 9 p.m.

Staff had extinguished the fire by the time firefighters had arrived but there was a small amount of light smoke coming from one of the units, PGFR Asst. Chief John Law said. Firefighters checked for any further hot spots and ventilated the unit.

The lone occupant had got out safely and there were no injuries.
