IDAHO FALLS — One woman is hurt and her home likely a total loss after a grease fire.

Multiple fire and EMS crews responded to the mobile home fire on Elswood Drive in Sunnyside Acres around noon Friday.

When crews arrived, they could see smoke billowing from both the front and back ends of the house.

A woman who was inside at the time of the fire was treated for minor burns to her shoulders and arms. She was transported to Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center to be evaluated.

Fire officials say unattended oil used to cook french fries started the fire and that the home is likely a total loss.
