Avon crews from Temple, Southmead, Bedminster, Kingswood, Avonmouth, Hicks Gate, Portishead and Patchway fire stations were called to a fire on a ground floor commercial property which was affecting residential flats above the premises.

The call came in just after 1 am this morning (11th July).

On arrival, 24 firefighters in breathing apparatus used four high-pressure hose reels and two 45mm jets to extinguish the fire.

They also used six positive pressure ventilation fans to clear smoke from the property.

Firefighters rescued five people from the building and 16 were evacuated.

Three casualties were suffering from smoke inhalation.

Police, ambulance and Bristol City Council were in attendance, and the road was closed.

The cause of the fire is currently unknown.

Before you go...

We need your help. As former emergency services & armed forces personnel, we pride ourselves on bringing you important, fast-moving and breaking news stories which are free from the negative bias which is often directed at the emergency services by some sections of the mainstream media.

One of the reasons we started 'Emergency Services News' was because we became tired of reading badly informed stories about the emergency services which seemed only ever to highlight negative aspects of the job.

We want to be the unheard voice of the remarkable men and women who serve in the emergency services, NHS and armed forces. And with around 500k page views each month, we are getting there!

As income from ads, the mainstay source of income for most publishers, continues to decline; we need the help of our readers.

And remember, if you have a service, product or job vacancy that you would like to promote to our large readership, then you can buy advertising space in our articles.

You can support emergency services news from as little as £1. It only takes a minute. Every contribution, however big or small, is vital for our future.

Please help us to continue to highlight the life-saving work of the emergency services, NHS and armed forces by becoming a supporter.
