8:03 AM: SFD reports the fire’s out. The unit above the one where the fire happened was affected by smoke, so they’re ventilating.

8:10 AM: SPD reports Fauntleroy is currently blocked both ways at the scene, “probably for another 15 minutes,” though SFD is starting to reduce the response.

8:13 AM: SFD tells our crew at the scene that this was a kitchen fire and no one was hurt.

8:58 PM: Tony, who sent the first photo, reports that people have been allowed back into Maris. And police have just told dispatch that all lanes of Fauntleroy Way are open again.

    Good reminder to have a fire extinguisher in your kitchen (ABC or K).  Nationwide it’s like 200,000 kitchen fires per year or somewhere around there.
