A huge fire has swept through a bungalow on a residential estate in Abergele.
The blaze at Gorwel broke out just before 4pm and smoke could be seen billowing from the roof of the property.
North Wales Fire and Rescue Service sent crews from Abergele and Colwyn Bay to tackle the fire.
North Wales Police, the Welsh Ambulance Service and The North Wales Emergency Doctor Service also attended.
It is believed that an elderly woman was inside the property at the time the fire started and was later transported to hospital.
The fire service remain at the scene tonight and investigators are trying to determine the cause.
An eyewitness told North Wales Live that neighbours and the police both tried to rescue a woman from the burning house.
The eyewitness said: "The woman was trapped but two neighbours tried to enter the house to rescue her. They wrapped her in wet towels but failed to get her out.
“An incredibly brave policeman crawled on his hands and knees to try and save her - he managed to get her out."
A Gorwel resident said she could see black smoke "billowing out" from the bungalow.
They added: "The fire engine was still there at 7:30pm.
"The house is black and looks absolutely gutted with no windows in the frames, and there are some items on the lawn outside from the house, but no activity outside."
North Wales Police were approached for comment.
