Fire crews had to race to a Southampton house fire last night.
A downstairs living room suffered severe smoke damage at a detached house in Exeter Road just after 10pm.
With dogs still in the property, crews from Hightown and St Mary’s tackled the flames
No-one was hurt, with crews spending just over an hour at the fire.
A man and the neighbour were both taken to hospital, but the man died from his injuries.
