A newly-qualified nurse was the first at the scene when a woman's house was hit by a devastating fire.
Emergency services rushed to Oak Leigh in Tuebrook at around 9.30pm on Thursday, April, 6, after a reported explosion at a house. On arrival, it was found that the window on the first floor of a house had been "blown out". It was initially reported to be a gas explosion but Cadent Gas later confirmed this was not the case.
Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service revealed today (Friday) that the cause of the fire was combustible materials falling onto an electrical cooker.
