Fire Teams Busy on Yorkshire Coast Overnight

The county's Fire and Rescue services were kept busy in the early hours of Wednesday morning in the Scarborough area.

Scarborough crews dealt with a small fire to rubbish in the communal hallway of flats, on Scalby Road in the town, just after 1am. They believe it was caused deliberately.

A small electrical fire in a socket in a house caused smoke damage throughout the house, around 3.20am on Columbus Ravine, in Scarborough. Scarborough and Filey crews extinguished and ventilated the property.

Then around 6.30am, a moped believed abandoned was completely destroyed by fire. Officers again believe the cause was deliberate. Sherburn's fire crew used a hose reel jet to extinguish.

This is the Coast is committed to providing a daily local news service for the Yorkshire Coast. We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.

A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
