Man dies follow fire in Tottenham

A man has died after being pulled by firefighters from a blaze in his north London flat.

Firefighters battled the flames for nearly two hours at the flat in Willoughby Park Road, Tottenham at 5.30pm on Sunday.

Another man who was rescued from the property is still in hospital.

A spokesman said: “Part of the flat, on the ground and first floor, was damaged by fire.

“Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus rescued a man from the first floor.

“He was sadly pronounced dead at the scene. Another man was taken to hospital by London Ambulance Service crews.”

London Fire Brigade sent three engines and around 20 firefighters to quell the blaze.

The force had it under control by 7.20pm.

Police said the cause of the fire is under investigation.

Last week a woman was killed when a fire broke out at a nearby residential home called Summerhill Village.
