This is the dramatic moment flames and smoke billowed from a tower block in Ashton-under-Lyne after a blaze broke out.
The fire broke out in a flat at Portland House on Katherine Street just before 11.30am this morning (Tuesday). Fire crews rushed to the scene as police officers closed off the road.
