Quick-thinking neighbours this evening managed to control a fire which spread after a possible electrical fault in a crib.

The incident happened in an apartment in Marsascala.

A woman who lives in the property called for help after the flames spread to a carpet and the front part of her apartment. Neighbours rushed in with fire extinguishers and managed to control the blaze by the time fire-fighters arrived.

No one was injured.
