Hoax Call

Trelowarren Street, Camborne at 16/03/2013 23:47


One fire appliance from Camborne Community Fire Station attended a report of a bin fire outside a shop. On arrival at the location given, it was obvious that the call was a hoax. Whilst the fire crew were attending this call they were not available to answer any genuine calls to help people in distress. Potentially, this would have put people in the area at greater risk.

If anyone has information as to who made this call, please contact Devon & Cornwall Police on 101, quoting their log number 897 of 16/03/2013.
