Wigan firefighters rescue dog from house fire
A fire crew from Atherton were called to the scene at 2.30am this morning after reports of a blaze in the kitchen and hallway of a home on Quarry Pond Road, Worsley.
Two adults and a child were able to escape the house unharmed before firefighters arrived, however a dog was still inside the detached house.

They then tackled the flames using three high-pressure hoses.
No injuries were sustained to the three residents or the dog as a result, however the house was left uninhabitable.
