Crews mobilised to car fire

Fitzroy Street, Totterdown

Crews from Temple were called to reports of a car fire at 20:38.

On arrival, crews found a large fire affecting multiple cars and wheelie bins. 

With two firefighters wearing breathing apparatus, crews used two high pressure hose reels and a 45mm covering jet to extinguish the fire. Also in use were battery operated spreaders and a thermal imaging camera to ensure that the scene had been made safe. 

 

The cause of the incident is thought to have been deliberate ignition.
