Blaze damages kitchen in Buford house

BUFORD - Fire did heavy damage to the kitchen of a Buford house just before noon Monday. According to Gwinnett County Fire Lt. Colin Rhoden, it happened in the 800 block of Old Spring Way.

Two adults and two children have been displaced as a result of the fire.

Investigators have determined the cause was materials, other than cooking implements, on the cooking surface.
