A number of police officers were treated for smoke inhalation after responding to a house fire in Dungannon on Monday (February 3) evening.

In a statement, NIFRS said: “On arrival, crews discovered that four persons had been led to safety from the property by our colleagues in the PSNI.
"Crews wearing breathing apparatus and using firefighting jets, extinguished a fire at the property and rendered first aid. The four persons were left in the care of NIAS.
