Neighbours have expressed their shock after emergency services descended to a city road to deal with a serious house fire. The emergency services were called to serious house fire in Alfreton Road, in Radford at around 6.40pm on Wednesday (August 10).
Firefighters from the Stockhill, Arnold, West Bridgford and Carlton fire stations responded to the scene of the fire, where part of the road was cordoned off by police. No one was injured in the blaze, but fire crews are now carrying out a fire investigation after the house was "severely damaged".
People nearby expressed their relief that no one was harmed by the incident, and spoke of the surprise at the sight of the emergency services on the road. Hardi Mohammed, 21, from Radford, said: “My friend lives in the house but he was outside when it happened and is okay. There were no flames when I got here just smoke. I’m glad everyone seems alright, but it is a shock to see all this.”
