The fire broke out on Monday night

Police say a fire which led to the evacuation of an Aberdeen tower block on Monday may have been started deliberately.

Seven people were treated after the incident at Aulton Court on Monday night, and one was taken to hospital.

The alarm was raised on the 12th floor of the 19-storey building on Seaton Crescent and five fire appliances attended the scene.

Police Scotland said: “The fire is being treated as wilful and inquiries are ongoing.”

Several firefighters in uniform, in the dark, next to a red fire engine with its door open.

Several fire crews were called to the scene

The Scottish Ambulance Service said it sent seven ambulances and two special operations response teams (SORT) to the scene.
