An investigation has been launched into the cause of a fire which started in a Hove bedroom yesterday afternoon.
East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service were called at 3.16pm on Thursday to reports of smoke coming from a bedroom in Hove.
Two fire engines from Hove attended an address on Sackville Gardens. One man suffered smoke inhalation.
Firefighters were also called to a flat fire in Eaton Place, Brighton at 7.44pm on Wednesday evening.
The incident was at a terraced property consisting of flats over four floors and a basement in Eaton Place.

Crews used four breathing apparatus and one hose reel jet. They then spent time damping down to ensure the fire was out.
The cause was accidental.
