Two dogs have died and two people suffered the effects of breathing in smoke in a fire at a Devon home.

Two appliances from Okehampton were dispatched to Crediton Road in the town at 4.22am.

Firefighters used two breathing apparatus, one hose reel jet and a safety jet to extinguish the fire.  They also used a Positive Pressure Ventilation fan to clear the smoke that had filled the living areas and roof space of the property.

An ambulance was requested to treat two adults suffering smoke inhalation.

The two dogs were found dead and removed from the property by the crews.
