Thirty firefighters from stations across Birmingham were sent to the scene after the blaze began in the kitchen of a seventh-floor flat.

A number of firemen wore breathing apparatus due to the thick smoke.

A spokesman for Erdington fire station said: "Neither of the two occupants was inside the flat when we arrived but the daughter was suffering from the effects of smoke.

"She was treated at the scene by ambulance crews before being taken to hospital.
