Firefighters evacuated a number of people after a fire in a block of flats in Syston overnight. Fire was reported in a corridor of the three-storey block in School Street just after 2.20am. Four fire crews from the city's Birstall, eastern and western fire stations, including a pump rescue ladder went to the scene. A ladder was used to rescue people from flats on the first and second floors of the building and everyone from the flats was accounted for. Firefighters wearing breathing equipment dealt with the fire in a ground floor storage cupboard and the electricity board was called to isolate the power supply.
