In the early hours of Monday morning on the 11th March 2013 9 people were rescued after a fire broke out in a tenement building in the west end of Glasgow.
It started in the Crow Road flats at 2.21am and was “well developed” by the time firefighters arrived.
A total of 20 people were evacuated from the building and were given shelter at Partick Burgh Halls, with 4 people being rescued from the upper floors, and 5 more led to safety. 6 residents were treated for the effects of smoke inhalation.
An investigation into the cause of the blaze is due to get under way. Firefighters remain at the scene and an investigation into the cause of the blaze will begin later.
