One fire appliance from Falmouth Community Fire Station attended and firefighters used one hosereel to quickly extinguish a fire involving a waste bin. Arson is suspected and Devon & Cornwall Police have been informed.

Anyone with information on fires being deliberately started are advised to anonymously call Crimestoppers free on 0800 555 111 or contact Devon & Cornwall Police on 101 with information.
Arson puts both the public and firefighters at unnecessary risk. It ties up resources that could be in demand for other more serious incidents. A lot of Cornwall is covered by on-call firefighters so there is also a significant cost to each incident.
