FIRE crews rushed to a flat fire in Southampton after laundry was left on an electric heater.
The fire started in a bedroom at a block of flats on Quayside Road, Bitterne Manor.
Crews from Hightown, St Marys and a command support vehicle from Eastleigh attended the incident just after 5am this morning.
The fire services have since warned people to dry their laundry safely.
A spokesperson for Hants Fire Control said: "It was a possible persons reported incident. Everyone was accounted for and are okay.
"We got the stop message at 5.26am."
