A man has tragically died following a major fire on a quiet residential street in Lancashire. The man, in his 50s, was rescued from a house in Thornton-Cleveleys by crews in Saturday (July 30).
Despite the best efforts of emergency services, he could not be saved and was pronounced dead at the scene, Lancs Live reports.
The blaze prompted a huge emergency response, with reports than an air ambulance landed nearby to the fire on Gorse Avenue, as huge plumes of smoke billowed into the air.
