Fire Teams Busy on Yorkshire Coast Overnight

The county's Fire and Rescue services were kept busy in the early hours of Wednesday morning in the Scarborough area.

Scarborough crews dealt with a small fire to rubbish in the communal hallway of flats, on Scalby Road in the town, just after 1am. They believe it was caused deliberately.

A small electrical fire in a socket in a house caused smoke damage throughout the house, around 3.20am on Columbus Ravine, in Scarborough. Scarborough and Filey crews extinguished and ventilated the property.

Then around 6.30am, a moped believed abandoned was completely destroyed by fire. Officers again believe the cause was deliberate. Sherburn's fire crew used a hose reel jet to extinguish.
