A HOUSE blaze was put out by firefighters at a property in Cobden Street, Kidderminster, around 1am on Sunday.

It broke broke out in a window box and two crews from Wyre Forest Fire Station attended.

After using water jets to put out the fire, they used positive pressure ventilation to clear the smoke.

Luckily the flames did not spread to neighbouring properties.

West Mercia Police were informed by the fire crews due to the suspected suspicious nature of what caused the incident.

But, officers said, after carrying out enquiries, no evidence was found to indicate the fire was started deliberately.
