Lego the cat was rescued from the roof sheltering the apartment block's entrance

A cat was rescued from an apartment block roof canopy by firefighters after he left his third-floor flat.

West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service said Lego "nipped out for some fresh air" on Thursday at the block in Shipley, Bradford.

Lego became stuck on the first-floor canopy covering the block's main entrance, with Shipley Blue Watch firefighters attending.

He was safely brought down a ladder from the canopy on Oswald Street.

The fire service, who were assisted by the RSPCA during the rescue, jokingly called it a "total cat-astrophe!"
