Bedroom fire

Two appliances and crews from West Ashland attended.

A small fire, in the rear first-floor bedroom of a mid-terrace house, was out when they arrived.

The firefighters provided immediate emergency care to one woman for the effects of breathing in smoke and minor burns. They handed her into the care of South Central Ambulance Service.

They used one hose reel jet and a positive pressure ventilation fan.

The cause of the fire was established as lithium-ion batteries which had been charging.
