Electrical Fire Concerns in Withernsea

Humberside Fire and Rescue were faced with an electrical fire in a garage in the East Riding.

It happened just before 12.30pm on James Close in Withernsea.

Officers described it as an electrical fire inside a garage, which spread to the conservatory of a semi-detached bungalow.

They say two hose reels, a Thermal Image Camera, a short extension ladder and other small tools were used.

Firefighters isolated the electrical supply.

They added that the garage was 80% fire-damaged, the conservatory was 20% damaged.

Worryingly, a smoke detector was not activated.
