Two people have been injured in the large blaze on the top floors of a six-storey building known as The Cube on Bradshawgate. Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service (GMFRS) confirmed paramedics had treated two people at the scene, including one person rescued by crews via an aerial platform. A spokesman said more than 40 fire engines were still at the scene on Saturday morning tackling "the last few fighting pockets of fire" in the building, which had been evacuated. One eyewitness described the fire as "crawl[ing] up the cladding like it was nothing". Ace Love, 35, told the PA news agency: "The fire kept getting more intense, climbing up and to the right because the wind was blowing so hard. "We could see it bubbling from the outside and then being engulfed from the outside. "A lot of students got out very fast, someone was very distressed, the rest were on phones calling for help. "The fire got worse and worse, to the point where you could see through the beams, it was just bare frame."
