THE cause of a house fire which left three people injured is under investigation.
As The Press reported earlier today, a serious fire in Easingwold kept fire crews from across York busy through the night.
Three people were treated by paramedics after the blaze and North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service said they were called out at 6.21pm yesterday (April 20).
A spokesman for the service said: "Six crews, along with an aerial ladder platform attended a fire to a residential property.
"Crews started tackling the fire on the second floor of the building.
"The fire then spread through parts of the third and fourth floor, including the roof void.
"Crews worked with hose reel jets throughout the building and the aerial ladder platform to access and fight the fire from height.
"One resident was treated for burns by ambulance paramedics and a further two occupiers were treated for smoke inhalation."
The cause is now being investigated.
