A four-year-old girl has died after a house fire in Pembrokeshire at the weekend.

Her family have described Alysia Salisbury as “a beautiful daughter and sister”.

Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service, the Welsh Ambulance Service and the Welsh Air Ambulance were also in attendance.

Police say Alysia died at the scene despite the efforts of the emergency services.
