Two people have been taken to hospital including a woman with burns after a unit fire in Central Queensland on Saturday.

Fire-fighters and paramedics were called to Marten Street, South Gladstone, about 2.47pm.

“We’ve got two crews there,” a Queensland Fire Department spokesman said.

“It looks like everyone is out (of the unit) except the cat.”

A Queensland Ambulance Service spokesman said paramedics assessed four people at the scene, with two of those taken to Gladstone Hospital including a woman in her 50s with “non-life threatening” burns to her thigh.

They were both in stable conditions, the QAS spokesman said.
