A kind-hearted Edinburgh local has set up a fundraiser for his neighbour following the aftermath of a devastating fire that ravaged the inside of their home on Tuesday.
Johnny Brown started the appeal online after one of his neighbours and their child were rushed to hospital following the blaze in their home on Granton Mains Brae around 3pm on Tuesday, July 12. Images from the scene show smoke pouring out of the top floor windows and 24 hours later, a pile of rubble and fire-damaged furniture have been pictured in the front garden.
Johnny, who was sitting playing his guitar next door, didn't realise the fire had even started until he heard all the commotion from neighbours outside. He said the top floor back windows had blown off and that one casualty was rescued from the building by a separate neighbour with a ladder.
