There are grave fears for a person pulled from a house fire just east of Brisbane.

It was “well involved” and seven fire crews were still working to put the fire out two hours later. Fire investigators were also on their way.

There has been a “total collapse of the building”, a Queensland Fire Department spokesperson said.

Three people have been assessed by paramedics outside the home, two of whom escaped the building on their own.

A man in his 20s suffered minor smoke inhalation and has been taken in a stable condition to Redlands Hospital.

Another person was uninjured and did not require hospitalisation.

A third person was later assessed by paramedics in a life-threatening condition and has not been taken to hospital. No further information about their age or gender was available.

Police have declared a crime scene at the home.
