Thirteen people, including five children, were rescued by firefighters from a block of flats following a fire in a garage below the property. 

The London Fire Brigade received 20 999 calls from residents at 03:27 hours on Wednesday 23rd June. 

Four fire engines and around 25 firefighters were sent to the scene on Baldry Gardens in Streatham.

An internal, ground-floor garage and a car were destroyed by fire. 

Seven women, a man and five children, were treated on scene by London Ambulance Service crews, and seven of them were taken to hospital.

Station Officer Simon Cook, who was at the scene, said: 

“We arrived to find a car fully alight in a car port underneath a block of flats. The blaze was producing a large amount of smoke in the area.

“Crews worked quickly to bring the fire under control and assisted local residents.”

The Brigade was called at 0327 and the fire was under control by 0446. Fire crews from Norbury and West Norwood fire stations attended the scene.

The cause of the fire is under investigation by the Brigade and the Metropolitan Police Service.

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

One of the reasons we started 'Emergency Services News' back in 2018 was because we became tired of reading badly informed stories about the emergency services & NHS 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 you, our readers.

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