Crews tackle two fires in Shropshire
Firefighters were called after two separate fires in Shropshire.
Crews were first called to a fire in Telford. The fire broke out in an immersion heater at a detached house in Crudgington at 8.17pm last night.
One crew from Wellington attended and used two breathing apparatus and a hose reel jet to put out the fire.
A spokesman for Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service said: "Some minimal damage was caused to the property but nobody was hurt at all."
In a second blaze, crews spent more than three hours tackling a barn fire near Shifnal.
Five crews from Albrighton were sent to a farm at Tong at 10.49pm last night after a barn containing a large amount of straw caught fire.
A spokesman for Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service said: "We received a call to a fire at a barn on a farm in Tong, near Shifnal. Five appliances were sent from Albrighton.
"Once at the scene the crew found a barn measuring approximately 20m x 5m containing large amounts of straw fully involved in fire.
