The blaze, reported at 1.11am, caused damage to the front of the property in Northwest London, but was quickly brought under control by the London Fire Brigade (LFB). No injuries have been reported.

A Met Police spokesperson told The Sun: "On Monday, 12 May at 01:35hrs, police were alerted by the London Fire Brigade to reports of a fire at a residential address.

“Officers attended the scene. Damage was caused to the property's entrance, nobody was hurt. The fire is being investigated and cordons remain in place while enquiries continue."
