Crews respond to small kitchen fire at Liberty Tech

JACKSON, Tenn. — There was a brief scare Monday afternoon as firefighters rushed to a Jackson school.

A fire call went out just after 3:30 p.m. to Liberty Tech High School.

Fire officials said they discovered a small fire when they arrived and believe it was sparked by a pizza oven when some warming boxes fell into it.

School was already dismissed, though a few athletic teams were outside for practice.

Officials with the school system released a statement saying there were no injuries and no damage.

They said the cause is still being determined but appears to be accidental.
