A FAMILY had to flee from their home last night as a fire broke out in their first-floor flat.
The blaze started at around 11pm in a block of six flats in Dent Close, off Wyld's Lane.
A member of the family saw the fire and raised the alarm.
Residents from all six flats had been evacuated by the time firefighters from Worcester blue watch arrived on the scene.
It took them an hour to put out the fire, using two hose reels.
The cause of the blaze is believed to have been an electrical fault.
