Two Rescued From Flat Fire In Blackpool
Fire crews were called to Queen Street at around 9.05pm yesterday.
Two people have been rescued from a blaze at a block of flats in Blackpool town centre.
The man and woman were helped to safety from a second floor flat at the back of the four-storey building in Queen Street, at around 9.05pm yesterday.
They were given a check-up by paramedics but escaped serious harm.
Others managed to get out before crews from Blackpool, Bispham, and South Shore fire stations arrived.
Fire investigators are now working to establish a cause, though police say initial findings show the blaze may have been started deliberately.
