Children were seen hanging from a window in a desperate bid to escape smoke after a blaze erupted at a block of flats.
Emergency crews were scrambled to the fire on Bellfield Court, in Musselburgh, after being alerted by residents at around 8.30pm on Wednesday, April 21.
Homeowners were evacuated onto the street as firefighters tackled the inferno but at least one family were left trapped in their flat due to thick smoke.
