A woman and a child were rescued after a fire broke out in the kitchen of a flat in Muirhouse last night.

The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service said the blaze started in a second-floor property in Gunnet Court, within Muirhouse View, when a grill pan caught alight just before midnight.

A spokeswoman for the service said a four-year-old girl and a woman, aged 22, were rescued by firefighters.

They were treated at the scene for slight smoke inhalation but did not have to go to hospital.
