Fire breaks out on Transformers set

Emergency services were called to the set of the new Transformers movie on Tuesday night (11Jun13) after a "controlled explosion" reportedly sparked a house fire.

Scenes for the fourth installment of the robot franchise, which stars Mark Wahlberg, were being filmed at a property in Pflugerville, Texas where a stunt is believed to have gone wrong.

Firefighters were called to the scene to put out the blaze, and local TV news station KVUE reports no one was burned, but one person suffered a broken ankle.

A crewmember working on the site reportedly told the station they were filming a "controlled explosion" at the time of the incident.

The new blockbuster is due for release next summer (14).
