THREE fire crews were called out to an incident at a flat near Chester.

A spokesperson for Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service said: "Crews were called to a report of a kitchen fire inside a flat.
"Firefighters used two sets of breathing apparatus, a hose reel jet and a large fan to extinguish the fire.
