Brighton: So, there was this house fire that happened recently, and it turned out to be quite the story. Firefighters were called to a flat on Beaconsfield Road, and it was a pretty big deal. The A23 got closed off while they dealt with the flames.

Traffic had to be rerouted, which is never fun, especially on a busy road like that. The fire started around 3:50 PM, and the firefighters worked hard to get it under control by 6 PM. Thankfully, no one was in the house at the time, and there were no injuries reported.

But here’s the twist: when the smoke cleared, they found a cannabis farm at the scene. Sussex Police are now looking into it, and they’re asking anyone with info to come forward. It’s a bit of a mystery, and they haven’t made any arrests yet.

So, if you know anything about what was going on there, you can report it online or give them a call. It’s a wild situation, and it’s got everyone talking!
