Lerwick fire crew attends Burra fire

The Lerwick fire crew attended a dwelling fire in Burra on Tuesday afternoon.

Two appliances from Lerwick were dispatched to Hamnavoe at around 12.40pm on Tuesday, to deal with reports of a dwelling fire.

The fire was out when the appliances arrived, however.

One hosereel jet, one safety jet, a thermal imaging camera and two members wearing BA equipment were used to ensure that the building remained safe before the crew left the scene.
