Around 30 firefighters were called to tackle a house fire in Easingwold last yesterday.

One occupier was treated for burns by paramedics and a further two occupiers suffered smoke inhalation.

The alarm was raised at around 6.30pm on Wednesday.

Six crews, along with an aerial ladder platform attended the blaze.

North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service said crews started tackling the fire on the second floor of the building.

A spokesperson said: “The fire then spread through parts of the third and fourth floor, including the roof void.

“Crews worked with hose reel jets throughout the building and the aerial ladder platform to access and fight the fire from height.”

Police were at the scene this morning and the cause is being investigated.
