Police are appealing for information after a building fire in a north-east town.
Four appliances from Banff, Macduff, Portsoy and Aberchirder went to the scene at Seafield Crescent in Banff.
The alarm was raised at 11.30am. Crews wearing breathing apparatus used one jet and two hose reel jets to get the flames under control by 12.42pm.
One appliance remains at the scene. Police have cordoned off the area while emergency services deal with the incident.
Inspector Steven McDonald, of the Banff Policing Team, said: “The fire has been extinguished and there is damage to property, but thankfully no one has been injured.
“Inquiries into the cause of the fire are underway and there will be a continued police presence in the area.
“Anyone who has any information, please contact us on 101, quoting incident number 1125 of the 9 of June, or anonymously via the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
Banff and District councillor Glen Reynolds said: “Our thanks as always goes to the emergency services.
“Incidents that take place during the pandemic stretch the resources of the emergency services. I hope the outcome of this incident is known soon to prevent further accidents from happening.”
