Firefighters respond to Huthwaite building fire

A station spokesman said crews were called yesterday afternoon, July 8.

He said: “On arrival, crews were faced with several sheds on fire.

"This was extinguished by four firefighters wearing breathing apparatus using two hose-reel jets.

“Breaking in-gear and a thermal imaging camera was also used.

“Thanks to the occupier who supplied both crews with chilled drinks, very much appreciated on such a hot day.”

It comes just a couple of days after crews tackled another shed blaze in Huthwaite.

Crews urged people to ensure bonfires and barbecues are fully out after the fire in the early hours of July 4.
