Fire crews have been called to a blaze in Nottingham on Saturday evening.

About 20 firefighters were called to Abbotsford Drive in St Ann's at about 19:30 BST.

Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service confirmed it was attending a blaze with four fire engines on the scene but could give no further details as it was an ongoing case.
