A man has been arrested on suspicion of arson after a fire broke out at a home earlier this week.
Three crews from Norfolk Fire and Rescue tackled the blaze at a house in Highland Road, off of Colman Road, for roughly 40 minutes.
Police also confirmed the man, who was arrested, was also taken to hospital in the wake of the fire.

The road was closed and the property was sealed off while investigations took place but police added this has now been lifted.
A neighbour who lives a few doors down from where the fire happened said they saw "lots of thick black smoke" coming out from the top-floor windows".
