A CARELESSLY discarded cigarette sparked off a bedroom fire in a ground floor flat on Norris Road, Sale, at around 2.30am this morning.
A 58-year-old man who escaped from the blaze was taken to hospital by paramedics.
The fire was out when fire crews arrived. They later used a positive pressure fan to remove smoke from the property.
