Car Fire
Ladock Wood, between Ladock and Mitchell at 14/12/2013 03:54
One fire appliance from St Dennis Community Fire Station attended a report of a car fire. Firefighters used one hosereel to extinguish the car that was completely burnt out. 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 and 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.
