A MAN was rescued from a flat in Milford Haven this morning after a fire broke out in the kitchen.

Two fire crews from Milford Haven were called to a ground floor flat on Dartmouth Street at around 6am this morning (Saturday).

They found one person already out of the flat while another had to be rescued from the heavily smoke logged flat.

The fire was confined to the cooker area of the kitchen.

Breathing apparatus and a hose reel jet were used by crews extinguishing the fire.

The two casualties were checked by fire crew and then by ambulance paramedics.

Crews returned to station at 7.20am.
