Carharrack at 03/10/2023 02:54
Currently pumping appliances from Tolvaddon, Falmouth, Perranporth, and Hayle, along with a water carrier from Helston and operational support unit from Falmouth, are in attendance at a large residential property fire.
At this time firefighters wearing breathing apparatus sets are extinguishing the fire using hose reel jets and main jets.
05:29 Update: Firefighters remain on scene, the incident has been sectorised with firefighters using 10.5 metre and triple extension ladders. There are four breathing apparatus in use with two hose reel jets. The property involved has suffered a partial roof collapse so crews are fighting the fire externally.
06:00 National Grid have isolated the electrics to the building. Breathing apparatus has been withdrawn and crews continue to damp down the fire ground.
More details will be posted as and when they become available.
