Homes evacuated due to garage fire in Bradford

Area Cordoned off by Police at Legrams Lane

Fire crews were called to the Fast Car Clinic near the Arcadia Garage at about 8 pm yesterday evening (05/06/2016). Fire crews quickly dealt with the fire in the garage premises off Ingelby Road in Bradford which was believed to contain cylinders. A ground monitor was used and the area cordoned off by police whilst the incident was dealt with. Nearby homes are also reported to have been evacuated. Four fire crews attended from Fairweather Green, Idle, Odsal and Shipley.

Fairweather Green Watch Commander Richard Lightowler said: "We used a ground monitor after being told there were cylinders being kept in the garage and thought one of them was acetylene which would have caused us a massive problem, but it turned out it wasn't so we were able to scale down our operations, we could have had a major incident on our hands." The roads were reopened just over an hour later.
