A YOUNG Southampton couple were taken to hospital after a fire in the bedroom of their home.
Smoke devastated the first floor of the terraced house in Osborne Road South in the Portswood area of the city early on Sunday morning.
Fire crews from St Mary's attended the blaze and an ambulance was called to treat the occupants for smoke inhalation.
They were taken to Southampton General Hospital as a precautionary measure.
A spokesman for the fire service said no one was seriously injured, and the cause of the fire was believed to be from a fault with an electrical fan.
