Transcript

00:00So early this evening we were called to report to a fire in the roof space of the building in

00:04Jobs Yard behind us. On arrival, initial crews found a fire within the roof space area of the

00:12property. At the moment we're unsure as to what what's caused the fire. Crews worked really

00:18quickly to gain access through the building. At present the building is under construction so

00:23access through the property becomes slightly difficult for us. Crews worked really hard,

00:29made really good efforts at start to get in, extinguish the fire and stop any fire spread

00:34and I'm pleased to confirm that the fire was contained to the roof space and damage has

00:39been minimal. We're going to be here for a little while with a bit of a presence on scene but we're

00:43just about to start scaling resources down and hopefully return the main run through into a

00:48little bit of normality. So what's happening at the moment, what's happening at the aerial level?

00:52We've got our turntable ladder in attendance, we've got a number of solar panels on the roof,

00:57they're also checking for any hot spots at roof level, just making sure that fire is fully

01:02extinguished, we've got no hot spots and just providing us some aerial imagery from above

01:08via the cameras on the vehicle so it gives us a better situational awareness down at ground level.

01:14And how many firefighters have been here, how many crews? So at its height we had six appliances,

01:20we've had an aerial appliance here and we've also had four officers in attendance as well.
