The huge – if precautionary – response saw half a dozen fire engines arrive at the Aspect 3 student halls building on Edward Street at 1.10pm on Tuesday, October 4.
A fire broke out in one of the kitchens when a resident reportedly put something which was too hot in a bin.
The accidental blaze was extinguished and crews left the scene by 2.15pm.
