Firefighters have been dealing with a blaze at a former veterinary clinic in Worksop.

Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service said four crews and an aerial ladder were deployed to the derelict building in Newcastle Avenue on Monday evening.

Video footage showed flames running along the top of the building.

It comes after a series of fires in the town prompted police to say they believed two groups of people were putting lives at risk.

There are currently no reports of injuries or indications of a cause for the latest fire.
