People should get facts straight before reporting on them, the house is in Padgate, there is no investigation underway and what is meant by casualty rescued exactly?
The report is published in good faith from the Cheshire Fire & Rescue website – like all other press reports. The report is still online and if you have any issues with it you need to raise them with the Fire Service. We have been in touch with the police (who attended) for an update https://www.cheshirefire.gov.uk/news-events/incidents/house-fire-in-warrington_22-04-2023_17-11-11
Thank you for the link Gary. Yes you are right the police did attend. That was a feeble attempt to imply something (who Attended), however I waited to get the keys back at gone 830pm
