Huge flames could be seen leaping into the air from the scene of a mobile home fire, which police were called to because of reports shots had been heard.
Two Fire and Rescue Crews from Dereham's station tackled the blaze at a property off Mill Road in Mattishall, near Dereham, at 10.44pm on Sunday.
A spokesman said the blaze was out within an hour.
A Mattishall resident, who did not want to be named, said the flames could be seen from some distance away.
He said: "It woke my daughter up. We saw the flames, they must have been 40-50ft high. There was the sound of broken glass.
Norfolk Police were also called to the scene, but fears shots had been fired turned out to be unfounded.
A spokesman said: "Shots had been heard at the scene, but these were later confirmed to be noises related to the fire."
The police said no-one was injured in the incident.
