‘We would have been trapped’ Bramley woman terror after faulty electric heater sets living room on fire

A woman who was terrorised by a fire in her home in Bramley, near Leeds, spoke out.

A fire started in the first floor flat within a two storey building on Fieldway Avenue in Bramley. Stanningley and Bradford Fire Stations responded to the call at roughly 6pm on Tuesday the 22nd. 

The woman whose flat it was has come out and spoken about the fire. She said “It was a faulty electric heater that came with the flat, set itself on fire which has then engulfed the carpet and curtains.”

“If this had happened through the night we would have been trapped in our bedroom with no way out.”
