A family had a lucky escape when part of their bathroom floor collapsed into the kitchen below.
Firefighters were called to the property in Olphin Street, Belgrave, Leicester yesterday afternoon.
They found a water leak in a bathroom had brought down ceiling tiles and the toilet was also in danger of falling through.
The crew isolated the electric supply and cleared up the debris making the area safe.
The alarm was raised shortly after 2pm on Friday and the Red Cross support vehicle was called to assist the family.
A fire service spokesman said: "Fortunately no-one was injured as the toilet was in danger of falling through.
"It appears a large amount of water from a leak had brought down ceiling tiles into the kitchen below."
He said the Red Cross support unit was on hand to offer support and help to the family and the landlord was also contacted.
