TWO fire crews were called out to deal with a fire at an ice cream shop in Burtonwood, Warrington, yesterday afternoon.
Two fire engines attended, one from Warrington and one from Birchwood were called to reports of a fire at an ice cream shop in Mercer Street, Burtonwood, shortly before 4pm.
On arrival there was slight smoke logging at the building measuring approximately 10 metres by five metres.
A cordon was set up and firefighters discovered that the smoke stemmed from a small fire in the ceiling.
Two firefighters wearing breathing apparatus extinguished the fire with a hose reel jet.
Ceiling tiles affected by the fire were then cut away and a large fan was used to clear smoke from the building.
Firefighters were in attendance for around an hour.
