Three women were burned from an “accidental flame” while trying to prepare food at a banquet table, CPD said.

A 25-year-old woman was critically burned and transported to Stroger Hospital, while a 44-year-old woman sustained burns and was taken to the same hospital in good condition. Another woman was admitted to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, also in good condition.

Chicago fire crews extinguished the remaining fire.
