The scene in Masefield Crescent today, supplied by an Oxford Mail reader
A WOMAN was rescued by firefighters along with a dog and a cat from a house fire in Abingdon this afternoon.
Firefighters broke down a door of the home in Masefield Crescent after being called by a neighbour at about 3.40pm.
The cause of the fire and the woman's condition is unknown this afternoon, but she was taken to hospital.
A reader who sent in this picture of emergency services at the scene said it was the back door firefighters used and they were seen to carry the lady out.
