People 'screamed and banged on doors' to warn neighbours of Mansfield house fire

People living on a Mansfield street say their neighbours were "screaming and banging on people's doors" to warn them about a large fire in the early hours of the morning. Crews from five fire stations across Nottinghamshire attended the incident on Union Street, which has left the roof of one house at the end of the road partly caved in.

Neighbours of the property affected say the fire happened at around 1.30am on Friday, December 30, and that it left the street "filled with smoke."

Liana Stienerova, 17, who lives on Union Street with her partner, said: "I was already up watching a movie and then I saw the smoke coming from the roof of the house and it was really frightening. Everybody was really scared and nearly all of the neighbours eventually came on to the street.
