Seven crews attended the fire in Holbrook Street, Heanor

Cannabis plants were found growing in a house after a fire that badly damaged two properties.

Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Service was called to Holbrook Street in Heanor at about 03:45 GMT on Tuesday.

Seven crews tackled the flames, which engulfed the roof of a terraced house and spread to a second, but no-one was injured.

Police believe it was caused by an electrical fault and appealed for any information about suspicious activity.
