An electrical fuse box fire in Newquay led to a call out for twelve firefighters yesterday evening.

The crew, in two fire engines, were called to the blaze at The Crescent at around 8.20pm to the fire on the outside of a property.

They used two sets of breathing apparatus and one hose reel and a carbon dioxide extinguisher on the fire, and remained on scene until the arrival of Western Power engineers, and the incident was left in the care of the property warden.
