A man has been rescued by a neighbour from a house fire in Bradford believed to be caused by a faulty electric blanket.
Fire crews from Bradford, Odsal and Cleckheaton were called to a house in Dawson Terrace, Dudley Hill, shortly after 5.15pm today.
They found the fire still burning and that the male occupant had escaped with the help of a neighbour.
The householder has been taken by ambulance to Bradford Royal Infirmary.
Four firefighters put out the blaze and a fire investigator has been called in to determine the precise cause.
